Annie with a Jacket!
Posted by maggie

It's just been called to my attention that a copy of the Cupples & Leon book Little Orphan Annie and Uncle Dan is on sale at the moment on eBay. Whether it is the hardest-to-find Annie book, as some have said, or no rarer than the others in the series, as others have said, what I find outstanding about it is that it has the dustjacket and looks to be in lovely shape.

Frankly, I don't think I've ever seen this vintage of Cupples & Leon strip reprints that had its dustjacket, though Overstreet carefully notes that each of the Annies came with one. A check of Bookfinder.com lists three copies from $28.50 to $55 -- but not one has a jacket.

So take a look. I think it's keen. Auction ends Feb. 17.
