No jacket but a good price as it doesn't show up too often.

I'm just an old fashioned girl with an old fashioned mind
Not sophisticated, I'm the sweet and simple kind
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And A̶n̶ ̶o̶l̶d̶ ̶f̶a̶s̶h̶i̶o̶n̶e̶d̶ ̶m̶i̶l̶l̶i̶o̶n̶a̶i̶r̶e̶

Re: The Snowdrop Storybook
I got a copy a couple of years ago IceMaiden, its a beautiful book and as you say this item doesn't show up too often. I managed to get The Bluebell Storybook from the same series.

Re: The Snowdrop Storybook
Yes - The Snowdrop Story Book is one of the harder titles to find - not sure why. I have them all, in the full versions (Gifford) but it took me a while to find the Snowdrop, Waterlily and Buttercup books.
That's not a bad price, as you say, even for a book with no jacket. I only have two of these books in dust jackets, and they both cost around £30.00 - £40.00 each. .

hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes

Re: The Snowdrop Storybook
The Buttercup one rarely shows up at all nor does the Poppy one, I think they are even harder to find than the Snowdrop book. Like you Rob I've got them all (I was lucky enough to find a seller who had all of them in one go!) but not all in dustjackets. It's a great pity the first five books haven't got the pictorial boards the last three have.
