PETER PAN IN KENSINGTON GARDENS - ILLUSTRATOR ARTHUR RACKHAM EARLY C.1910 EDITION

"This delightful and collectable piece of children's book illustration is an early printed copy of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by J.M. Barrie. Inside an attractive cover, by the accomplished illustrator Arthur Rackham are twenty four original colour plates. There are also two further bonus Arthur Rackham line drawings in the text. This version dates from 1910 by William Heinemann, London England (note the inscribed dated dedication for 1910 on the title page). A super attractive collectors item in good general shape and a magical read... It is so pleasing to find a volume that has survived and not been dismembered to make up framed prints!"
