For each book, Rockwell created eight full-color paintings and numerous pen-and-ink drawings, the product of extensive on-the-ground research in Twain's hometown of Hannibal, Missouri. Famously, Rockwell even tried to buy some Hannibal residents' old clothes, to dress his models in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor years, the Rockwell editions of \u003cem\u003eTom Sawyer\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHuckleberry Finn\u003c\/em\u003e have been unavailable in stores. Now, Abbeville Press is proud to reissue them as a handsome new clothbound set. The color plates are reproduced from new photography of Rockwell's original paintings, the typesetting has been done anew to a high standard, and new introductions--illustrated with Rockwell's rarely seen preliminary sketches--examine this unique encounter between two legendary chroniclers of America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublisher's note: These volumes present Mark Twain's text unabridged and unedited, as it appeared in the original American editions of \u003cem\u003eThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer\u003c\/em\u003e (1876) and \u003cem\u003eThe Adventures of Huckleberry Finn\u003c\/em\u003e (1885).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 640\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 20, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63162244792669,"sku":"9780789213679","price":60.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1025\/5558\/2813\/files\/UVkyQlZWbTNOOE56cmI1WkdzV003UT09.webp?v=1768932959","url":"https:\/\/novellybooks.com\/products\/the-adventures-of-tom-sawyer-and-huckleberry-finn-norman-rockwell-collectors-edition-hardcover","provider":"Novelly Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
