A Tale of Two Glimps

[New York]: Columbia Broadcasting System, [1946]. Oblong 4to. Original pictorial boards; original plain cream dust wrapper. Wrapper lightly chipped, boards worn at ends of spine. Item #406222

FIRST EDITION, with CBS's promotional card laid-in. The two "glimps" – singular creatures whose varying perceptions (glimpses...) of their worlds provide them their name – each have a television set. One has color, the other has black-and-white. It is not hard to imagine which has the better life, and which set CBS was trying to advocate in this scarce promotional work by Bemelmans.
