Bible Stories of Boys and Girls - A Little Golden Book

The item is a vintage 'A Little Golden Book' titled "BIBLE STORIES of Boys and Girls". It is a hardcover children's book with a glossy, illustrative cover. The primary colors of the cover are a medium-blue sky, a sandy yellow desert, and vibrant multi-colored robes on the central figure. The book features a classic Little Golden Book binding with a gold foil spine on the left side, adorned with white illustrated motifs, including a rabbit at the bottom left. The front cover illustration depicts a young person, likely a boy, wearing a striped, multi-colored robe, holding a shepherd's crook, and petting a black sheep. In the background, there is a desert landscape with numerous camels and people. The top left corner displays the 'gb' logo in a circular emblem typical of Little Golden Books. In the top right corner, the number "694" and "404-1" are visible, which likely identify the specific edition or series number. The book shows signs of wear consistent with its age and use. There is noticeable scuffing and minor discoloration along the edges and corners of the cover. The spine, particularly the gold foil, appears to have some minor scratches or abrasions. The overall condition suggests it is a used, but relatively well-preserved, example of a vintage Golden Book. It likely dates from the mid-20th century given the style and Golden Book numbering conventions.
