Seller's Description:
A.T. Elwes. Very Good. No Jacket. Joel Chandler Harris (1848-1908) seems to have weathered the storms of controversy and his contribution to the preservation of Black American dialect is acknowledged; it is OK to enjoy the stories! This is a Very Good copy of a Later Printing of the First Edition. No publication date, but identical to the First Edition of 1883 and meeting points for a Routledge First. Per Copac, Quercus believes this to be the issue from 1891. Fifty wonderful black and white illustrations by A.T. Elwes. Pumpkin-colored cloth binding with the iconic rabbit; different views depending on front or back! Clean text; 248 pages, with 8 pages of publisher's adverts in the rear. Period signature on the FFEP; rear gutter is starting to crack but all is holding nicely; very mildly bumped; a few small bubbles on the front cover. Withal, a very attractive and sound copy of this iconic work. Size: 12mo-over 6¾"-7¾" tall.

Spine darkened; some wear to extremities; overall a very good copy. 288 pp. With illustrations in color and black and white by J. A. Shepherd. 8vo, This was Joel Chandler Harris's own copy, with a 2-p. ALS to him from the illustrator on the letterhead of George Newnes Limited (English publisher) in 1902, tipped to the front free endpaper. Shepherd discusses the illustration of this book, and asks Harris to consider contributing a "humorous paper on Mr. Rabbit" to a new magazine. An autograph note by Shepherd indicating that he illustrated this book is mounted to the front pastedown. Harris's children ("Uncle Remus's children") have inscribed the front free endpaper in 1934, with a drawing of a rabbit. Also laid in is a 19th c. color postcard of Uncle Rumus and a little boy.
