Father Christmas goes on Holiday
London, Hamish Hamilton, 1975 (first edition).
Square quarto, [32] pages including a colour-pictorial title page and 30 pages of colour illustrations ('a series of strip pictures, filled with detail and very funny, which occasionally erupt into full-page spreads', citing the dustwrapper blurb from the 1973 precursor).
Colour-pictorial papered boards; essentially a fine copy with the near-fine dustwrapper, unclipped, with a local department store price label mounted over the printed price.
The first book in the series, 'Father Christmas' (1973), was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal.
