Description from the seller
"Ginger & Pickles" by Beatrix Potter - Frederick Warne, London - 1909 first UK edition (first issue) - 15cmx13cm (larger format book) - condition: in original publisher's binding, some rubbing to edges, wear along spine lining, plate to cover, all plates present
The Tale of Ginger and Pickles (originally, Ginger and Pickles) is a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter, and first published by Frederick Warne & Co. in 1909. The book tells of two shopkeepers who extend unlimited credit to their customers and, as a result, are forced to go out of business. It was originally published in a large format which permitted very detailed illustrations and also allowed Potter to include black-and-white vignettes. Potter filled the tale with characters from her previous books. The book was eventually republished in the standard small format of the Peter Rabbit series and was adapted to drama in 1931.
