Author: Johnny Gruelle. Illustrated by Johnny Gruelle.
Title: Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Camel with the Wrinkled Knees.
Publisher: Joliet, Illinois, The P. F. Volland Company, no date (circa 1930).
Language: Text in English.
Size: 9.5 × 6.6 inches.
Pages: Unpaginated.
Binding: Attractive and near fine original publisher’s decorated cloth binding with floral patterned boards and illustrated front cover panel (hinges fine, overall slightly scuffed - as shown) under a protective removable mylar cover in its original illustrated box, a highly desirable and increasingly scarce survival. The box is in good overall condition, with corner repairs carried out by a previous owner. While structurally stabilized, the box remains fragile by nature, as expected for an original Volland box of this period, and should be handled with care. A rare find in any condition!
Content: Very good, near fine content (bright, tight and clean - as shown). 
Illustrations: Fully illustrated throughout in color by Johnny Gruelle, including full-page plates and integrated illustrations, all complete and exceptionally fresh.

The book: Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Camel with the Wrinkled Knees is a classic installment in Johnny Gruelle’s beloved Raggedy Ann series, blending gentle fantasy, moral warmth, and whimsical illustration. First published earlier in 1924, this copy represents a later edition, as indicated by the copyright page and edition statement.

The book itself is in near fine condition, with exceptionally well-preserved colors and a remarkably clean interior, making this a standout copy for collectors seeking both visual impact and strong overall condition.

The author: Johnny Gruelle (1880–1938) was an American illustrator, writer, and cartoonist best known as the creator of Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, characters that became enduring icons of American children’s literature. Gruelle’s work is celebrated for its distinctive illustration style, combining playful innocence with emotional warmth, and for stories that emphasize kindness, imagination, and moral clarity. His Raggedy Ann books, particularly those published by the P. F. Volland Company, remain among the most cherished and collectible illustrated children’s books of the early 20th century.
