This 62-page edition features a vividly illustrated front cover (depicting Joseph being thrown into the pit) and is richly illustrated throughout with black-and-white line drawings that dramatize key episodes from Joseph’s life: his dreams, being sold by his brothers, interpreting Pharaoh’s dreams, and the emotional reunion with his family. Printed in Great Britain by H. Clay and Sons, Suffolk. The book is in very good condition for its age: all pages are clean and intact; the original cover is preserved, though the spine is damaged. A highly collectible edition for lovers of illustrated Bible stories and early 20th-century children’s literature.
