"Put the cake and the little pot of butter upon the bread-bin and come and lie down with me." Sussex 1933. <br/><br/>Original pen-and-ink drawing signed "A Rackham" on lower left-hand corner for the full-page drawing on page 275 in the The Arthur Rackham Fairy Book. London: George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd. 1933. <br/><br/>Image size: 4 3/8 x 6 1/8 inches; 112 x 157 mm. Matted framed and glazed 15 7/8 x 13 5/8 inches; 404 x 346 mm.<br/><br/>This wonderfully executed pen and ink drawing depicts the moment when Little Red Riding Hood sees the wolf dressed up as her Grandmother. The wolf is in her Grandmother's bed and tells Little Red Riding Hood to "Put the cake and the little pot of butter upon the bread-bin and come and lie down with me". Of course the rest is history !!<br/><br/>The wolf is dressed in a mop cap wearing glasses and hiding behind the curtains of the bed. Grandmother's slippers are sitting neatly on the floor by the bed and next to the bed there is a candle and a bowl on a small table. Little Riding Hood is dressed in her riding hood holding some flowers she has picked for her Grandmother and carrying a large basket with the pot of butter sticking out of it.<br/><br/>As always Rackham has created a moment in time - one which is universally recognized.<br/><br/>"Little Red Riding Hood" is a European fairy tale about a young girl and a Big Bad Wolf. Its origins can be traced back to the 10th century to several European folk tales including one from Italy called The False Grandmother Italian: La finta nonna later written among others by Italo Calvino in the Italian Folk Tales collection. The best known versions were written by Charles Perrault and then later by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. Arthur Rackham chose the original Charles Perrault version.<br/><br/>The Moral of the Story. Children especially attractive well bred young ladies should never talk to strangers for if they should do so they may well provide dinner for a wolf. [Sussex]: , 1933 unknown books

196961174bdCleveland: The World Publishing Company 1969. First American Edition. Oblong octavo full-color illus. boards hardcover full-color illus. endpapers unpaginated 26 pp. Fine in a Very Good mylar protected dust jacket with lightly rubbed edges. From dust jacket: When the miller died he left nothing at all to his youngest son except -- of all things -- a cat. Unhappy with his meader lot the boy despaired of ever earning a livelihood for himself. But to his surprise the cat spoke up and offered to help him in return for only a sack and a pair of boots. With these he proposed to seek his young master’s fortune. And from his fist visit to the king bearing a plump white rabbit as a gift to the mysterious disappearance of the fearsome ogre Puss proved himself to be the most ingenious of cats and a treasure indeed. Charles Perrault first set down this delctable tale in 1697; its rollicking humor made it an instant and perennial favorite. Now at last if finds its perfect expression in a translation which follows closely PErrault’s original version and in Barry Wilkinson’s warm and gleeful illustrations which reinterpret for today’s children the vitality and beauty of seventeenth-century France in striking design and glowing stained-glass colors.
