"Yearling and the jumping horse design are registered trademarks of Random House, Inc."; evidently the same horse as for Dan Craig cover below Yearling Fantasy"

Wrightson, An Older Kind of Magic

An Older Kind of Magic T746357 2016-05-24

ABEbooks reported 1st and 2nd printings 1972 and 1973 (now in the database)

The second clearly portrays the creatures same as interior illustrator Noela Young.

The back cover illustration of our copy seems to be "after" this one.


An Older Kind of Magic in contrast P268636

apparently first printing as you say
Title page simply "Puffin Books", no locale
Copyright page:
-- lists UK first of 2 Penguins
-- no mention of London (as per OCLC: <a href="http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/59152636">59152636</a>), simply "Hutchinson Junior Books Ltd 1972" as publisher and illustrations copyright-holder (but we say HJB is a London imprint[10]
-- "Made and printed in Australia at // Alexander Bros, Mentone, Victoria"; notice that presumably violates US copyright law on rebinding
back cover
-- "A Puffin Book // Published by Penguin Books"
-- "For copyright reasons this copy is not for sale in the U.S.A."
-- summary
-- two(?)-color illus after Noela Young cover illus. User:Pwendt//Covers/Wrightson, Down to Earth
-- 'Cover illustration by Jack Newnham";
-- same 4 prices you state in same sequence
-- ISBN-10 lower right corner, two lines

Hi. You verified the 1975 (2nd printing?) and 1985 (5th?) of the Down to Earth Puffin edition apparently for sale in Australia 402038 238013. From a library copy that I need to return next week, I recently added/verified the 1980 3rd? printing 569041, as a clone of one of your records. My first four Notes are based on yours, copy-paste with modification to fit the book in hand.

The first Note is a big change Hong Kong rather than Australia, odd to me given that the date is intermediary. 1975 - 1980 - 1985
