(P. F. Volland) publishers. KATHERINE THE KOMICAL KOW (Volland Sunny Book Series) by June Norris; illustrations by Lew Tower. Joliet; New York; Boston: The P. F. Volland Company, (1926). Eleventh edition. 12mo - 7-7/16" x 6". Color pictorial paper covered boards with the slightest touch of wear to the tail of spine for what is a truly beautiful copy of the book. Original publisher's color pictorial paper covered two-part cardboard box with the slightest hint of wear at the corners for what is a near pristine example of the box. Full color pictorial endpapers. [40] pp. This rebus book, i.e. a book where some of the words are replaced with pictures that suggest the words, tells the story of a mischievous cow named Katherine, whose owner can't even give her away. By the end of the tale, Katherine has become the heroine of her farm; two leaves with a repaired, short closed tear to the bottom edge of the leaf, one 1/4" long and the other one 1/2" long. The condition of both the book and the original publisher's box is NEAR FINE. Only five copies located on OCLC/WorldCat. RARE, especially in such nice condition and in the box. # 000703
