This charming antique edition of Wee Macgreegor by Scottish author and journalist J. J. Bell follows the humorous misadventures of a young Glaswegian boy and his working-class family. Originally published in 1902, the stories gained immense popularity for their endearing use of the Glasgow dialect and became a classic of Scottish humorous literature. This particular copy was published by Thomas Nelson and Sons and features a blue cloth binding with a swastika on the front cover; in this early 20th-century context, the symbol was a common sign for good luck and auspiciousness before its later political adoption. The book is in fair vintage condition, showing visible wear and sunning to the cloth spine and boards, along with some staining and small tears to the internal pages, particularly at the hinges and bottom edges. The binding remains intact, though it shows some loosening consistent with age.
