Uncle Arthur’s Bedtime Stories

Here are some illustrations from Uncle Arthur’s Bedtime Stories, a collection of moralistic tales for children published in 1964.

Front flyleaf, by Harry Baerg.

Many of the stories seem to include one or more large illustrations executed with great care, followed by incidental illustrations of lesser quality done by another artist, who is not credited individually. I’ve included both kinds of pictures here.

Peter Pays Up, illustrated by William Dolwick.

Diana’s Donkey Ride, illustrated by Harry Baerg.

Seventeen Cowards, illustrated by Manning de V.Lee.
