Abstract
-
en_US
This edition has a dust jacket but seems otherwise to reproduce my 1950 reprinting of the 1912 original. The colored illustrations are particularly well done here. This is what I wrote on that 1950 reprinting: It reduces the numbered of colored illustrations from thirteen to eight and fortunately includes two of the three I had chosen as the best: 'The Blackamoor' (8) and 'The Ass and the Little Dog' (160). Whereas the black-and-white illustrations had become rather feint for the 1950 reprinting, they are quite strong here. The cover is the same plain yellow cloth. The book is in very good condition.
