Spanish Fairy Stories – Gamel Woolsey / Mario Armengol 1st Edition 1944

“Armengol (Mario Armengol, 1909-1995) was a Spanish illustrator known for his distinctive style, particularly in the beloved 1944 book Spanish Fairy Stories, translated by Gamel Woolsey, featuring magical, dream-like tales with his vibrant, expressive art that blended fine art with commercial design”

Binding is firm and pages clean, along with the illustrations by Mario Armengol

On the rear of the front cover is a number written in pen, opposite the impression of a dedication, yet these really don’t deflect from the sheer charm of this 19 x 13cm collection of Mediterranean tales.
