| Our Camping Holiday cover |
In previous articles I've shown the compilation The Caravan Family and also Our House on Wheels. This time it's the turn of Our Camping Holiday.
The stories featured are:
- An Autumn Outing
- A Friend On The Road
- An Adventure And A Surprise
- All Together
- The Caravan Dragon
- "Deer!"
- The Pony Fair
- All The Fun!
- Rain!
- The Flood
Because some of the reproductions in my copy are rather washed out - especially with the colour prints, I have decided to scan the ones from The Caravan Family. I'd love to know if others see the same thing in their copy of this book. I've repeated the original art for the fairground ride below to show some difference between the original and the printed version. The colour of image of Colin the terrier (below) was used on the cover of Animals: Stories and pictures (which was also published by Blackie) which I've yet to show on this blog. Quite a few images are used for the 'Caravan' series in fact.
