Ein Klassiker des englischen Kinderbuchs mit mehreren Märchen, illustriert von einem der bedeutensten Arts-and-Crafts-Künstler und Gestalter Walter Crane (1845-1915). Er eignete sich die Auffassung einer einheitlichen Kinderbuchgestaltung an, die bis in die Umschlagillustration hineinwirkt. Bei ihm wirken sowohl die romantische Idee wie auch der Symbolismus nach. Crane wurde durch neue Ideen über den Zusammenhang von Kunst und handwerklicher Ausführung zum einem der Wegbereiter des modernen Bilderbuchs. Enthält die Märchen "Little Red Riding Hood", "Jack & The Beanstalk" und "The Forty Thieves". Geringe Gebrauchsspuren, teils ganz leicht fleckig und gering gebräunt, wenige Papierrestaurationen (geschlossene Risse) oder Stockfleckchen, insgesamt ein gutes, ordentliches Exemplar, die Innengelenke mit rotem Leinenstreifen verstärkt. Die Abbildungen in grandioser, leuchtender Farbigkeit, frisch und überzeugend. Vgl. Gumuchian 1929. Seller Inventory # M978
