AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A very rare and uncommon edition of Andersen's 'Fairy Tales and Stories'... indeed the only copy available worldwide... illustrated by E. S. Duffin and published by Routledge. Inside, there is light foxing and stains, especially at the beginning and end, but overall it is clean and complete with the 24 black-and-white illustrations; I count only 5 color illustrations out of 8. It is missing pages 461/462 of the text. The front and rear free endpapers are absent. According to Worldcat.org, this book cannot be found in any libraries! Externally, it has original cloth binding with light wear around the edges and corners, and some shelf wear.
