Magic Land of Toys Alberto Manguel HC DJ Vendome Press 2006 1st Ed
$45 · Offered by eBay
You are buying Magic Land of Toys by Alberto Manguel, with photography by Michel Pintado, published by The Vendome Press in 2006. This is a large-format hardcover with dust jacket featuring imaginative full-color photography of antique and vintage toys from the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. The book presents very well overall, with a clean, attractive jacket and sharp-looking boards. Included are publisher promotional materials tucked inside, including a press release and publicity letter dated 2006, which add nice ephemera value for collectors. I do not see major damage from the photos, though there may be light shelf wear, handling marks, or minor edge wear consistent with careful ownership. A great copy for collectors of toy history, photography books, museum publications, or unusual illustrated art books.
