The Pink Fairy Book Andrew Lang Longmans 1st Ed 1897 HB Rare Antique Book Ford Search Hello and welcome to my sale for a rare and collectable first American edition, hardback copy of Andrew Lang's "The Pink Fairy Book", illustrated by H. J. Ford and published by Longmans, Green & Co in 1897. Subsequent editions stated they were reprints; therefore I believe this is a first edition. This is a sound copy of a very rare and collectable book, part of the series Edited by Andrew Lang. It is profusely illustrated throughout and all plates and pages are present and correct. The book is in good- condition for it's age. The cover is grubby with age; there is some fading to the pigment. The spine ends and corners have softened. There is a 1" scuffed area at the top of the spine. Wear to the bottom of the spine cover. Guilding bright and complete. Nice and tight; no loose pages. Dedication on ffep. Water mark on edges of pages up to page 24 and from page 326 to page 360 (see photos). Page extremities have slight tanning. Guilding to page edges intact. All pages intact and present. Overall a nice collectable copy. I rate my graphic novels and books as follows; mint, fine, very good, good and fair, with +'s or -'s as applicable for books inbetween ratings. I will always highlight any major defects. Please due to my 100% FEEDBACK
