Pink cloth boards, white marks on front and rear, darkened edges and markings from shelving and handling, corners bumped; binding is tight though front joint partially exposed; pages are unmarked aside from P.L. Travers' signature on front endpaper. Travers dedicates a short message 'To Dr Peter Dally for his children, from P.L. Travers June 1963'. Dr Peter Dally (1923-2005) was the Senior Consultant in psychiatry at Westminster Hospital; he also privately treated several prominent figures at his Devonshire Place pratice, including figures in politics, business, royalty and the arts, and P.L. Travers. Travers agreed to sell the Mary Poppins rights to Walt Disney in 1961, two years after she dedicated this book. Her finances had been a problem, which is said to be a principal reason for agreeing to the Disney offer. It is entirely likely that without the Disney money, she would not have been able to afford Dr Dally's substantial fees! This is an interesting association copy.; 6.25 x 0.4 x 7.75 inches; Unpaginated pages; Signed by P.L. Travers

First edition, predating the UK edition by a year, presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper in blue ink, "For Zelma, and old friendship, with love from P. L. Travers, August 1962". This series of 26 "alliterative antics" (New York Times) concerns characters from the author's previous books, including the redoubtable and eponymous nanny. Inscribed copies are uncommon. The Chicago Daily Tribune published an interview with the author in November 1962 explaining that "the occasion of Miss Travers' visit to this country from her home in England was the September publication of Mary Poppins from A to Z". The book proved sufficiently popular to be issued in 1969 as an LP record by Caedmon, read by Robert Stephens. Chicago Daily Tribute, 11 November 1962, section 2, part 4, p. 5; New York Times, 30 September 1962, Book Review, p. 28. Octavo. Illustrations by Mary Shepard. Original yellow cloth, spine lettered in black, front cover with vignette in black, illustrated endpapers. With dust jacket. Spine of unclipped jacket toned with minor loss to head, extremities of jacket slightly worn, minor crease to front flap, minor soiling: a fine copy in a very good jacket.
