A Snow Angel. Illustration by  Dorothy P. Lathrop.
Original 1947 Storybook Art Print

A little toy snow angel,  carrying a candle in her hand ventures into the woods to let the woodland  creatures know that is is Christmas Eve.

                                                                                          "And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,
                                                                 On Christmas -day in the morning."

This illustration is entitled: Snow Angel  Lights Your Way To  Christmas.


This original, out-of-print lithographic book art was published in 1947.  Lathrop's 'drawings are outstanding not only for their sheer beauty, but  also for their accurate and sympathetic understanding of animal life.' -- bsq

Signed by Artist: No.

Dimensions: 7 3/4 " x 6 3/4 " inches with 1 " inch margin surrounding the  image.

Detailed Condition ~ Full page image is a lithographic print softly rendered in deep brown tones on light-cream colored paper.


EXCELLENT. Age toned edges. Printing on back that does not distract from  artwork. Rough sewn binding edge. Some rippling across top margin and  turning creases present along the bottom & right margins. Soft, bumped  corners. The image areas remain crisp & clear. Trimming diminishes the value  of this type of ephemera thus the piece is untrimmed, all original, as  published.

This uncommon find is an original antique print, not a reproduction or  digital copy and if possible, you antique print includes its adjoining text  page, to enhance framing and to help in the preservation & design.
