VINTAGE Ladybird book – Ned the Lonely Donkey with DJ (late 1950s)| Outlet

Lovely vintage Ladybird book.

‘Ned the Lonely Donkey’  from series 497 (animal tales)

Story by Noel Barr, illustration by P B Hickling

Original printed price – 2’6 NET

Condition:  Very good – it is in lovely condition complete with dust jacket. Just a few little age spots inside and very light wear and tear to dusk jacket but generally really nice. 

I am no expert on dating, but have used the wonderful resource available on Helen Day’s website Fly Away Home and believe this book is from about 1958. (It features the original open-wing Ladybird logo, and in the list of other Ladybird books available, the most recent additions to the catalogue include The Farm and The Story of Nelson – which were published in 1957).
