Who wrote it: Captain Impossible at Sea is a children's adventure story by Peter Abenheim, published by Spindrift Books of San Francisco in 1959.

What it's about: This rare title is tied to both the history of San Francisco children's publishing and early children's television, making it a fun find for collectors of either.

Why I like it: I had never heard of this book before I found it, and it is just adorable. It is a rare piece of both San Francisco history and children's television history.

Condition: Teal hardcover in clean condition; dust jacket present but very heavily torn and damaged. Has a previous owner inscription on the front endpaper. Please review all photos carefully, and email me with any questions.

Thanks so much for visiting, ❤️ Jess
