Description:
A scarce first edition Australian printing of Walt Disney’s Johnny Appleseed, adapted by Ted Parmalee and issued as part of the beloved Little Golden Book series by Golden Press, Sydney in 1948/49.

This edition brings to life Disney’s animated retelling of the American folk hero Johnny Appleseed, known for planting apple orchards across the frontier. The colourful illustrations and charming storytelling make it a treasured piece of Disneyana and a significant early example of Golden Press publications in Australia.

Condition is good overall, with expected signs of age: wear to the covers (notably edges), fold to the top right-hand corner of the cover, and light tanning to pages. A wonderful addition for collectors of Little Golden Books, Disney history, or mid-20th century children’s publishing.

Please note: Shipping weight reflects the packaging and protective wrapping required for safe postage, not the book alone.
