Published by Charles Scribner & Sons Ten beautiful color plates by Jessie Willcox Smith, featuring the younger characters from the novels of Charles Dickens. Some history on the illustrator; JESSIE WILLCOX SMITH (September 6, 1863 – May 3, 1935) was a United States illustrator famous for her work in magazines such as Ladies Home Journal and for her illustrations for children's books. Measures approx. 9.5" x 7". Extremely nice. The slightest bit of wear to the outer edges of the covers due to shelf wear. A small open tear at the tip of the first beige endpaper and upper edge. The pages are clean, tight and bright. A few show some very minor creasing. Considered very good for the age. Please see photos, enlarge and email with any questions. Thanks for looking. |
