In 1937, Walt Disney adapted the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs from Grimm's Fairy Tales, producing the much loved animated film that we know today. This book is the authorised book based on the Disney film, and it is beautifully illustrated with original drawings from the film.
Bound in the original publisher's colour-illustrated paper-covered boards with a reddish cloth spine. The boards have rubbing and general wear to the edges, corners and to the head and tail of the spine with some minor discolouration to the cover in places. The endpapers depict Snow White in the forest with woodland creatures and are clean and bright. There is a superficial crack to the front hinge but the contents are firmly bound. The contents are lightly age toned with the odd spot of foxing and the odd mark here and there, but otherwise clean and bright. The corner of one page has been torn away as shown in one of the photos - it does not affect text or pictures. Beautiful and vibrant illustrations.
