“Peggy and Joan” Book Cover — Honor C. Appleton Art Postcard

This card reproduces the original cover of “Peggy and Joan” — Mrs. H. C. Cradock’s storybook illustrated by Honor C. Appleton for the publisher Blackie. Two girls in polka-dot dresses are caught mid-play at an open toy cupboard, holding up a jester doll for a wide-eyed teddy and a floor full of scattered dolls to see.

A neat find for collectors of classic children’s-book covers, or anyone who grew up with this particular storybook on the shelf.
