Peter Pan and Wendy
Hodder & Stoughton, 1921.
First edition with illustrations by Mabel Lucie Attwell. 4to. Blue cloth with gilt titles on spine and upper cover. Both spine and upper cover have decorations in blue, green and gilt. Twelve colour plates mounted onto art paper with captions printed below, the image entitled "I daresay it will hurt a little" is made even more charming by being circular. In addition to the colour plates there are numerous line drawings in the text. A near fine copy. A neat gift inscription on the verso of the frontispiece.
The book has been reprinted in various formats with Attwell's illustrations, but none are as sumptuous as the first edition of this wonderful gift book.
