Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Book Leather Edition - US 7282

In 1939 Robert L. May, a copywriter working at Chicago's Montgomery Ward & Co., wrote a holiday story at the request of his employer. Almost two and a half million copies of the little tale about a reindeer with a shiny red nose were given away to all the children who visited Montgomery Ward stores that year. The rest is history. Seventy-five years later, the beloved classic is again available in a hardcover faithful facsimile of the 1939 Rudolph, with original text and Denver Gillen illustrations. All generations will enjoy this heirloom quality gold embossed and leather-bound home library book celebrating the nostalgic Christmas story, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
