LITTLE MEN (Hardcover Book)

The item is a hardcover children's book titled "LITTLE MEN," clearly visible in yellow block letters with an orange outline at the top of the front cover. The cover features a vibrant illustration depicting an idyllic outdoor scene with two boys and some cattle. One boy, dressed in a sailor-style top (white with a blue collar) and blue pants, is seated atop a grayish-brown donkey or mule, which appears to be rearing slightly. To the right, another boy, seen from the back, is dynamically depicted in mid-jump or reaching upwards, wearing a rust-colored shirt and blue jeans, with shoes that resemble sandals or plain brown footwear. In the background, there's a brown cow with white markings, and further behind what appears to be another cow or calf. The setting is green and blue, suggesting grass and sky, with sporadic green foliage and small flowers. The overall color palette is bright and inviting, typical of children's book illustrations from the mid-20th century. The book itself appears to be in used condition, with some visible wear and slight discoloration on the cover, consistent with handling over time. The edges and corners might show minor scuffing, though not distinctly visible from this angle. There are no immediate signs of severe damage such as tears or major creases. Without opening the book, specific manufacturing marks, publication dates, or copyright information are not discernible. However, the artistic style of the illustration and the typography of the title suggest an estimated age possibly from the 1950s to 1970s. The quality of the printing on the cover appears decent, indicating a standard production for a children's book of that era.
