This is Uncle Arthur's Bedtime Stories, Eleventh Series, by Arthur S. Maxwell, a 1935 Review and Herald Publishing Association paperback, with a British copyright of 1934 by The Stanborough Press.

The color cover of two children praying at their mother's knee by the fire is bright, the cream back cover has light soiling and small spots, and the pages are whole with no rips or tears, as the photos show.

You get short, true to life stories that each teach a moral lesson, such as The Twins' Bicycle and Hurrah for the Baby!, paired with black and white photographs. The frontispiece, Ready for a Bedtime Story, shows two children in pajamas holding a candle, and the cover notes 3 1/2 million copies sold.

Questions buyers ask

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
