1901003093London: Cassell & Company 1901. First Edition. Hardcover illustrated paper pastedown. Near Fine/Very Good. 4to. 29.5 by 22 cm. 40 1 pp. Leaves are folded in the Japanese manner giving the leaves a substantiality. In this one of Walter Crane's most famous works he freely draws upon the styles of dress from the Jacobean Georgian Regency periods as well as those from a vague Medieval past -- court jesters wizards etc. -- such as one finds in fairy tales some ball gowns more contemporary to him. The illustrations are a pageantry of color inspired by the work's fanciful progression of the calendar. This is a near exemplary copy of the work that was a part of the Forbes Magazine Collection which was a privately owned museum gallery. A discrete impressed stamp identifies it as such and it may thus be technically considered ex-lib although the provenance in this instance combined with its lovely condition would seem to enhance the copy. The dust jacket is an uncommon survival. Externally there is one minor corner chip and light wear besides. If one lifts the jacket off the book one will see an old edge tape repair that is best to leave as is. <br/><br/> Cassell & Company hardcover books
