Item description from seller

Red paper wraps (softcover) with tipped on color illustration of Peter on the front cover. Duodecimo (5.75" x 4.125"). 57 pages. Condition: Good plus. Cover with light stain and scuff, front hinge cracked at top, rear hinge cracked but all still holding together firmly. Old price in ink on the first blank endpaper. Paper is slightly age toned but the interior is otherwise clean. Beatrix Potter's The Tale of Peter Rabbit was originally published in October 1902 by Frederick Warne in London. Unfortunately for the author, Warne neglected copyrighting her work in the United States which lead to publishers in the US printing unauthorized editions stealing her text and images. This version circa 1912 copies Potter's original text and the illustrations are similar but decidedly inferior.
