Description: The Red Fairy Book is an Antique Fairy Tale Story Book collection compiled by Andrew Lang with a lovely stamped, pictorial cover board of thumbelina in a flower on its hardcover published by Grosset & Dunlap at the turn of the 20th century 367 pages. In GOOD condition considering it is over 100 years aged. Red canvas stamped pictorial boards depicting a picture of two yellow fairies in embrace upon a green flower. Black lettering on front and spine. The cover is all-over soiled. No dust jacket. Spine faded. Bumped corners. Torn & frayed on top and bottom of spine due to shelf wear. Binding in tact but split at front cover with netting exposed. Pages are very slighting off color from age but not yellow and as a whole they are very clean -free of stains, odors, creases and markings. The book is undated but printings in this style of elaborate covering by this publisher are dated through inscriptions left in some copies as early 1900s and as late as early 1920s. This is a solid copy of a timeless fairy tale by a well known story collector. 7 1/2" tall x 5 1/2" wide x 1 1/4" thick Grosset & Dunlap, Illustrated by Gordon Browne, T. Scott, E. A.
