Description:
[London]: [Thos. Hodgkins], 1805. 16mo. (11.7 x 9.4 cm, leaves) 16 pp. Three-quarter 19th Century calf with attractive marbled paper with gilt decorative ruling, title and date gilt-lettered on spine. Printed on facing versos and rectos, with 15 exquisite and colorful hand-colored engravings (including title vignette).

The poem is one of the rarest children's books of this period, seldom turning up in the marketplace. See Osborne p.100. Edges close-trimmed with some loss to headlines and to final lines of text (including loss of imprint), closed tear at gutter of last 4 leaves repaired with archival tape, [B3] with lower outer corner torn away resulting in loss of text (1.8 x 5 cm at largest point), second and third leaves bound out of order, lacking original wrappers.

Description:
London: M. J. Godwin, at the Juvenile Library, 1811. 12mo, [xii], 176, 4pp. (advertisements), original publisher's boards, uncut edges (unusual), without the 2 plates (this is not a defect, since not called for- see below). A very scarce and desirable tile by Charles Lamb, which was published by Godwin in 1811, but was not re-issued, as this volume (which may be considered a second edition of that excessively rare item) took its place. In books published by Godwin in 1812, there occurs an advertisement for Poetry for Children which is headed "Out of Print, but the best Pieces inserted in "Mylius, First Book of Poetry." Extensive notes by early owner in pen, and another in pencil detail the edition..."Since the title-page notes that the volume is sold bound in sheep with two engravings, this uncut version which lacks the engravings should not be regarded as defective since, they are not 'called for." [Pencil note by William St Clair]. The work contains twenty-nine original poems by Charles Lamb under…

Zurich and Leipzig: Totapfel, 1926. First edition. First edition. Original green cloth spine, color pictorial paper covered boards. Color title and 12 sensational full-page color illustrations by Ernst Kreidolf. Lenzgesind originated from a collection of images which Kreidolf had set aside from unplaced works of earlier books deemed as surplus and augmented by newer illustrations. "The 63 year old Kreidolf then produced verses for the 12 illustrations, sometimes mature, sometimes humor, sometimes profound." (Haase). A fine copy in every way. A very scarce and seldom seen Kreidolf title, especially in this fine condition.
