Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. As stated on the limitation page, "Only One Hundred Copies of this Large Paper Edition have been printed for England and America". This is an unnumbered copy. 'Large Paper Edition' is a little misleading as the book measures 16.5cm by 11cm approx. Covers with gilt title and gilt Beardsley details to front (the standard first edition has the Beardsley details in red). Boards and spine heavily sunned. Front inner hinge split with webbing exposed. Binding weak and beginning to open. Panel of surface loss to ffep where someone has excised personal details. Pages decent with light general toning. The main interest in this work relates to the Beardsley line drawings; mainly in-text but some full page examples. 191pp. Further details available on request. (Uc4).

Salesman's sample has specimen sheets of text but does not include the text for the fables. Publisher's adverts are laid on the inside front cover. Sample spine is laid on the back cover and is in excellent condition--could possibly be used in rebacking an original. Unusual to be issued with all the plates. Boards are covered in red linen with gold lettering and illustrations. No printing on the spine. Boards are in good to very good condition with gently bent and slightly fraying board corners and moderate soiling. Spine is tight but has the beginning of some splitting. Page ends are gilt.

Hardcover. Special illustrated edition (ND). Bound in sturdy red cloth with with delightful gilded animals and floral designs on the frlont boards and on the spine. Top edges gilt.The binding is shaken and somewhat worn with chipping and wear to the top and bottom of the spine ends and at the corners. Name and date, Christmas, 1917 on the second free front endpaper. Lovely silhouette animal endpapers. While all the plates are present and in good condition, the hinges have been reglued and there is considerable wear along the spine ends and at the gutters where it hs been reglued as well. This copy is something of a wounded bird with the lovely Charles Robinson plates. Charles Robinson(18701937) was a prolific British bookillustrator. Born inIslingtonin October 1870, London,[1][2]he was the son of illustrator Thomas Robinson, and his brothersThomas Heath RobinsonandWilliam Heath Robinsonalso became illustrators.[3]He served an apprenticeship as aprinterand took art lessons in the evenings. He won a place at theRoyal Academyin 1892 but was unable to take it up due to lack of finances.The first full book he illustrated wasRobert Louis Stevenson'sA Child's Garden of Verses(1895) which includes over 100 pen and ink drawings. It was extremely popular, going through many reprints, and generated numerous commissions. He illustrated manyfairy talesand children's books throughout his career, includingEugene Field'sLullaby Land(1897),W. E. Cule'sChild Voices(1899),Friedrich de la Motte Fouquà 'sSintram and His Companions(1900),Alice's Adventures in Wonderland(1907),Grimm's Fairy Tales(1910),Frances Hodgson Burnett'sThe Secret Garden(1911), and books written by Walter Copeland Jerrold and himself.He was also an activepainter, especially in later life, and was elected to theRoyal Institute of Painters in Water Coloursin 1932. Robinson married Edith Mary Favatt in 1897 in Middlesex, England[4][5]and they were the parents of four daughters and two sons. (Wikipedia).
