    Description

    Colour Plates, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

    Illustrated with a colour frontispiece and six further full colour plates, the work of Florence Mary Anderson, an English artist and stage designer who also illustrated a number of books. Collated, complete.

    Journalist Samuel Robinson Littlewood offers his own retelling of the romance 'Valentine and Orson', the story of twin brothers abandoned in the woods in their infancy.

    A beautifully illustrated children's tale.

    Condition

    In the publisher's original cloth binding, with pictorial onlay to front board. Bumping to spine head and tail, with fading to back strip. Internally, firmly bound. The odd spot to page perimeters, with pages otherwise bright and generally clean. One plate detached and loosely inserted.
