Beau Pogo

New York: Simon and Schuster, 1960. First edition. Paperback. 191pp. Octavo [20 cm] Illustrated wraps. Very good. The covers are slightly age-toned, rubbed and soiled. There are multiple very small light stains on the wraps as well. The bottom edge of the text block is barely perceptibly soiled. Heavily browned pages. Walt Kelly's career in animation began in 1936 at Walt Disney Studios, where he contributed to Pinocchio and Fantasia. In 1941, Kelly resigned at the age of 28 to work at Dell Comics, where he created Pogo.
