Sally Found Out

Second book in a series of only two titles featuring Sally, who has a "good idea in a head that is good.[leading to] something of a rebellion" & multiple adventures "that girls like reading about." As in Ms. Garis's other books, Sally is a "modern" heroine with different abilities & inclinations. Most involved girls solving mysteries (like their counterpart who would come around in the 1930s, Nancy Drew). Ms Garis was a writer in the same Stratemeyer Syndicate that produced the Drew books, but unique for a woman writer at the time, insisted on writing under her own name. A FIRST EDITION, unknown printing, from 1930, in 248 pages + [2] pages in rear including a publisher's notice & ad for other titles. Glossy frontispiece + 3 glossy internals by illustrator Thelma Gooch. Hardcover 12mo has soft gray cloth-covered boards stamped with a black image of Sally to front cover with green lettering to front/black to spine. Condition is Fine: exceptionally clean & bright, interior pages are creamy white with mild, age-appropriate tanning, but completely unmarked. A hint of corner bumping & rubbing to extremities.
