Description from the seller
A rare first impression/first edition of Just So Stories, by Rudyard Kipling. Published by MacMillan and Co., London, 1902. With a complete suite of twenty-two illustrations by the author. Collated complete.
Bound in the publisher’s original pictorial red hardback cloth boards. A later replacement spine.
Externally the original boards are in very good condition, and the colouration lovely and bright.
Internally, aside from the occasional tiny amount of spotting in places, it is clean and fresh.
We have counted all text pages and plates, and can confirm this book is fully complete.
"Just So Stories has achieved nursery immortality because a genius has married two of the most tried and trusted media - the fable and the fairy-story" (Muir, 107). Livingston, 267.
