SNOW TIME

Snow Time by Miriam Schlein. Pictures by Joe Lasker. Albert Whitman, 1962. Probably a first edition since no other printings are listed. No jacket. Reinforced orange binding with picture pasted on front board of boy on sled. Some surface paper has been pulled off about one square inch of the white part of the picture near the bottom, and there is some light pencil scribbling over the boy himself. There are also some very light discolored spots. There are a few smears and markings on the back of the book, but they don't stand out much. Corners are bumped and corners and ends of spine show moderate wear. Front end papers bear owners' names. Inner edges of ffep and rfep are discolored along spine near gutter. There are a few light smudges on end papers and on an occasional page. Pages next to end papers have a multi-colored snowflake design, as though they were another set of endpapers. This is most likely a first edition, since no other printings are mentioned. There is no copyright information anywhere except the on title page. This picture book describes what you can do with snow, what it looks like, what effect it has on daily life, and what happens to all that snow after it falls. Illustrated by Joe Lasker . BT#1971. $20.00-U (B)

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
 

We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail, since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway.  We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that. 
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
Or call (800)925-8587 (not before 10 AM or after 10 PM Pacific Time)
