The Young Collector's Illustrated Classic is an abridged big type confection brought to the public by Kidsbooks, Inc. There is no indication as to who the illustrator was, the graphics are by and large bounded by a solid boarder, but this portrait of a right peg legged Ahab, has elements extending to the very edge of the paper, to what purpose, I have no idea.
Head gear is fast becoming an item of interest to me, as Ahab's cover has has some foreshadowing of WWII German naval attire.
And truly his peg leg is just that a peg!
