"Stately as a galleon", and other songs and sketches - Joyce Grenfell, John Ward
Stately as a Galleon', and Other Songs and Sketches by Joyce Grenfell, with illustrations by John Ward, published by Macmillan London in 1978.
This hardback collects songs and sketches, with a line illustration by John Ward to the front cover showing a woman in a flowered hat. The back cover carries a further line drawing captioned 'Picture Postcard'. The spine is green cloth with white lettering, including the Macmillan 'M' device at the foot.
The copyright page confirms text by Joyce Grenfell and illustrations by John Ward, both dated 1978, with first publication that year by Macmillan London Limited, printed by Lowe & Brydone of Thetford, Norfolk.
Internally, the pages are cream-coloured, with printed sketch titles and small line drawings alongside the text, as seen on the sample page for "Shirley's Girl Friend".
The covers show some edge wear and handling marks, with light rubbing to the green boards.
