IN GLASSINE DUSTWRAPPER
The Tailor of Gloucester
F. Warne & Co., 1903.
First commercially published edition. Original grey-green paper covered boards lettered in white, with a pictorial onlay to the upper cover. In the very rare original glassine dustwrapper. Illustrated throughout by the author. A superb fine copy, which is clean and bright having been protected by the glassine. The glassine has a chip from the rear panel, not affecting any text but is otherwise unusually crisp and complete.
The dustwrapper provides fascinating contemporary information on Potter's books and related merchandise as well as showing the book in its most original and complete form.
