Indicative of the first edition. In the name of political correctness Upton's wonderful golliwog - heroic gentle gallant and resourceful - has been lumped together with stereotypes and condemned out of hand. In fact when picture books were filled with images of white-skinned golden-haired blue-eyed children Upton was the first to use an Afro-Caribbean character as the main protagonist. .

UPTON, Florence K
The Golliwogg's Bicycle Club.
London: Longmans Green & Co. 1896. First edition. A nice copy of this uncommon first edition. Follow the adventures of Golliwogg and his old companions a group of Dutch peg dolls as they pedal their handcrafted bicycles across the globe. Their journey takes them through the streets of Paris beneath the iron arches of the Eiffel Tower and onward to Japan where they discover the thrill of riding in a rickshaw. The trip continues through Turkey across vast desert sands on camel back until a dramatic encounter with a tribe of cannibals brings their expedition to a most unexpected halt. Original hardback boards with green cloth spine. There is a touch of darkening to the boards and bumping to the corners but still an attractive copy. Gift inscription in pencil to the inside front board. The title page is moderately darkened. The rest of the book is clean with a few finger marks to some pages. There are a couple of very small closed tears to the edges not affecting text. Lovely full page and vignette illustrations. Curiously the copyright notice and date are printed on each full page illustration. 63 pages. 215 by 280mm 8½ by 11 inches. . Première édition. Un bel exemplaire de cette première édition rare. Suivez les aventures de Golliwogg et de ses vieux compagnons une bande de poupées à tige hollandaises alors qu'ils parcourent le monde à vélo sur leurs vélos fabriqués à la main. Leur périple les mène dans les rues de Paris sous les arches de fer de la Tour Eiffel puis au Japon où ils découvrent le plaisir de se faire conduire en pousse-pousse. Le voyage se poursuit à travers la Turquie à dos de chameau à travers les vastes étendues désertiques jusqu'à ce qu'une rencontre dramatique avec une tribu de cannibales mette un terme inattendu à leur expédition. Couverture rigide d'origine avec dos en toile verte. Les plats présentent un léger noircissement et les coins sont un peu abîmés mais l'exemplaire reste très attrayant. Dédicace au crayon sur la page de garde intérieure. La page de titre est modérément jaunie. Le reste du livre est en bon état avec quelques traces de doigts sur certaines pages. On note deux très petites déchirures fermées sur les bords qui n'affectent pas le texte. De ravissantes illustrations en pleine page et vignettes. Curieusement la mention de copyright et la date sont imprimées sur chaque illustration en pleine page. 63 pages. 215 × 280 mm. Florence K. Upton. Longmans, Green, & Co. hardcover

Upton, Florence K, words by Bertha Upton
The Golliwogg's Bicycle Club
London New York and Bombay: Longmans Green & Co 1896. Hardcover. Good Plus/No Jacket. Oblong 11 By 9 Inches. 63 pp. Full color plate illustrations not quite every other page with text illustrations interspersed in margins of comic verse. One of the best of the politically dubious relics of late nineteenth century children's literature. It is hard to say whether the infectious humor of the illustrations or of the fluent inspired doggerel almost certainly emulated by the likes of Roald Dahl is the bigger draw. Probably the rarest of the highly desirable Golliwogg series this one taking our characters to Paris Japan and Africa. This copy has considerable soilage on the boards which are illustrated paper pasted onto the boards. Shelfwear along edges and corners. Original spine band survives with some wear by tips and rubbing along gutters. Interior tight. Some scattered soilage to pages but text and especially the illustrations remain attractive.
