Descrizione

8vo., with coloured frontispiece (original tissue guard present) and 15 fine coloured plates, (coffee?) stain on half-title and frontispiece (only just affecting edge of illustration); handsomely bound in full red morocco, sides with double frame border stopped at corners by rosettes all in gilt, gilt back with five raised bands, compartments ruled in gilt and tooled with a dragonfly motif, original backstrip gilt and gilt illustration from front cover mounted and bound in, gilt top, a splendid copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. The finest illustrated 'Water-Babies' and arguably Goble's most sought-after work. Apart from the relatively inoffensive stain a remarkably bright, clean copy.
