The First Mickey Mouse Book. - (Bibo-Lang, 1930) A rare Mickey Mouse Book originally published for distribution through movie theatres. Considered the first Mickey Mouse book, it includes the story of Mickey Mouse, a Game, the Mickey Mouse March, and the song ”Mickey Mouse (?You Cute Little Feller')” with accompanying arrangement for the ukulele. The story was written by the 11-year-old daughter of the publisher, Bobette Bibo. The book became so popular that it was reprinted many times starting in late 1930. Measuring 9” x 12”, the book is in good condition with wear to the cover, including soiling, creases along the spine with a 3” split at the top, folds at the corners, and a torn corner and small edge tears to the back cover. The interior pages are overall clean and in very good condition, with the game complete.
