American/British Comics Update: An Illustrated Library of Great Indian Stories
*Classics Illustrated: In the early 1950s, UK publishers Thorpe & Porter got the rights to produce Classics Illustrated reprints in a UK annual type format with board covers (with illustrations) and full colour interiors. One such example from 1952 is ‘An Illustrated Library of Great Indian Stories’ which features four tales by James Fennimore Cooper: The Pioneers, The Pathfinder, The Deerslayer and The Prairie. A reasonable sound copy with some corner and edge rubbing, a solid spine, decent page quality with vivid colour and just a tiny chip out of the front cover picture towards top of spine (see image). Very uncommon.
