RARE First Edition Goldilocks and The Three Bears Pop Up Book published 1934

First edition of this early Blue Ribbon pop-up book, with three double-page pop-ups depicting scenes from Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Illustrated by C. Carey Cloud and Harold B. Lentz, Goldilocks and the Three Bears published by Blue Ribbon Press is an early American example of the pop-up book. It features several in-text black-and-white illustrations and three pop-up double-page illustrations in full color including Goldilocks tasting the porridge; the three bears discovering Goldilocks in bed; and Papa Bear evicting Goldilocks from his house. Pop-ups fully functional, binding in very good condition with minor fraying, pages in amazing condition with the exception of contemporary pencil drawing & pen circle drawn on first page. Might be able to be removed, but I decided to leave that to the buyer.

This title is often well-worn and an example such as this with the pop-ups as described, text fine, and boards very nearly so is quite collectible!
