hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: London, Frederick Warne & Co. Ltd., 1933 Formatting: Small 4to, pp. 60. Condition Report: Very Good. The original blue cloth boards remain remarkably clean and vibrant, having been well-preserved beneath a clear protective sleeve, with only very slight rubbing to the extremities and minimal bumping to the corners. The binding is square, tight, and sound, presenting excellent structural integrity. Internally, the pages are generally bright and tidy, though there are a few isolated spots of light foxing primarily confined to the preliminary pages, half-title, and endpapers. The sixteen colour plates remain vivid, securely attached, and entirely unmarked. Catalogue Note: This is the charming first edition of a classic golden-age fairy book, featuring sixteen stunning full-page colour plates and numerous black-and-white inline drawings by the acclaimed illustrator Margaret W. Tarrant. Known for her delicate and ethereal depictions of fairies and woodland folk, Tarrant's artwork in this volume represents some of her most sought-after collaborative work. The volume features a neat contemporary ink gift inscription to the front free endpaper reading, "Peggy / with love from / Auntie Mouse & / Uncle George / Xmas 1935." Such personal inscriptions add a factual layer of historical charm to children's books of this period, reflecting the traditional gifting of fairy tales during the festive season. First editions of Tarrantâs fairy titles in such sturdy, highly presentable condition are increasingly scarce on the open market, as they were often well-loved and read to pieces by their original young owners. Follow the enchanting adventures of Joan and her rough-haired puppy as they are whisked away from Mr. Digswell's garden into the magical, miniature realm of Flowerland. Beautifully brought to life by Margaret Tarrant's iconic and delicate illustrations, this timeless tale weaves a gentle narrative of childhood wonder, nature, and the secret folk who hide among the thistles and blooms.
