Red Magic A Collection of the World's Best Fairy Tales from all Countries, Edited and Arranged by Romer Wilson
Cape, 1930.
First edition. Red cloth with gilt lettering to the spine and top edge red. In the rare patterned dustwrapper. Eight colour illustrations, fifty full page black and white plates and a host of smaller line drawings. The illustrations are all in Nielsen's distinctive Art Nouveau style. A fine copy, with just a little foxing to the page edges, in a fine, crisp dustwrapper, the spine clean and bright with both the red and white of the spine far more vibrant than usually encountered. An exceptional copy, the finest we have encountered.
Nielsen's scarce fifth book, produced in a more modest format than the earlier gift books, but still with striking illustrations. Includes such classic stories as Bluebeard, Aladdin and The Six Swans.
