Description: [010385] Newell, Peter (Illus); Fairy Tales (Subj). Favorite Fairy Tales: The Childhood Choice of Representative Men and Women. NY: Harper & Brothers, 1907. 1st Edition. Thick 8vo. Good / Poor. TEG. 355 pgs. Parchment covered boards with pictorial gilt design and titles, some soil and foxing to covers, 6 of the 16 monochrome plates are neatly colored by a previous owner (for a minute I was confused because I didn't remember the book having color plates!), marginal stain to last few pages, much of the book is unopened; the laid paper dust jacket mimics the cover design, but it is in two pieces, and missing small chips from edge. Uniform with Newell's Alice and Looking-Glass, Favorite Fairy Tales contains familiar tales, all of which were selected by well-known literary figures of the day and include: Jack & the Bean-stalk; Sleeping Beauty; Red Riding Hood; Ugly Duckling; Hop O' My Thumb; Beauty and the Beast, Little Snowdrop; The Three Bears; Snow-White & Rose-Red; Wild Swans, Aladdin & the Wonderul Lamp; Ali-Baba and the Forty Theives; Second Voyage of Sindbad the Sailor; and, History of Ali Cogia, A Merchant of Bagdad.
