William Steig's Abel's Island: A Signed Poster

Abel's Island, William Steig's illustrated novel for young readers, is about a mouse marooned on an island. The book was published by Farrar Straus Giroux in May of 1976. A poster issued by FSG to coincide with the book's publication listed the various Steig titles then available. Tom Bloom writes that his copy of this poster was "purchased from Ken Sanders (in his pre-Antiques Roadshow days) for $50 in the early '00s." It is signed by Steig.
