London Bickers and Son 1880. Brown cloth, yerllow endpapers. All edges gilt. Lovely front cover and spine illustrations of fairies in gilt and black. Modest edge wear, spine lightly rubbed. Twelve plates in "permanent photography from the Boydell Gallery", each mounted on heavy card stock. Frontispiece, tissue guard, and title page show peripheral foxing. The tissue guard appears to be the culprit. Plates and text are clean. 16 pages of advertisements at the end dated July, 1880. Printed at the Chiswick Press..
