Q: Hi can you send me information regarding the attached book (Grimm’s Fairy Tales). The cover is not shown in your posting.
A: The Young People’s Library is a series of books for juveniles. There were four formats which are easily distinguished by their covers and spines. This book which has the appliqué on the front cover is part of Format 4. This format was published between 1923 and 1933. Because of this ten year span, these books are relatively common.
The dust jacket matches the book’s cover.
This cover as well as other pictures of the books in this series are shown here: http://henryaltemus.com/series/series202F4.htm
