Misty of Chincoteague

The first printing is identified on the copyright page by the statement "Edition of 1947" accompanied by the letter "A"; one ABAA-listed dealer states the point flatly as "Edition 1947 and A on the copyright page." The binding is light blue cloth stamped in yellow on spine and front cover, with color pictorial endpapers of a pony crossing a marsh, a color pictorial title page, and black-and-white illustrations throughout by Wesley Dennis; the book measures roughly 9.5 x 6.75 inches and collates to 173/174 pages
