Bookseller's ticket to front endpapers. Spines a little sunned a few instances of very minor discolouration and scuffing to bindings. A near-fine set.<br/> <br/>Limited edition of 525 sets of which 500 signed by the author were for sale. However many of these were destroyed when the publisher's warehouse was bombed in 1941.<br/> <br/>The Sussex Edition number 101 of a limited edition of 525 sets signed by the author on the limitation leaf of vol. I. In his last years and with his health failing Kipling continued the gathering-up of existing material that resulted in the great retrospective work. the Sussex Edition of his works undertaken by Macmillan as a monument to one of the firms most profitable authors. The idea for the edition went back to 1928 and work was begun by 1930. The selection fuller than that of any other edition was the work of Kipling and he saw the proofs of at least 21 of the editions 35 volumes before his death. Set in Bembo type on hand-made paper bound in Nigerian goatskin and limited to 525 sets the Sussex Edition did not begin publication until 1937; sales were slow in those depression years and a large number of the unbound sheets lying in a London warehouse was destroyed by German bombs. One result of this exaggerated scarcity is that the Sussex Edition is now among the most prized and most expensive of all modern editions ibid. Vol. 6: 1931-36 2004 p. 231. Though the edition was published posthumously Kipling had signed the limitation sheets prior to his death on 18 January 1936. A very attractive set of this superb edition.<br/> <br/>Richards D23; Stewart pp. 577-80. Macmillan and Company unknown books

Kipling Rudyard.
Just So Stories. With 35 Illustrations by the Author. Reprint of the First Edition.
New York: Weathervane Books 1978. Octavo black leatherette hardcover gilt letters vi 210 pp. Fine in a Near-Fine dust jacket with lightly sunned spine. From dust jacket: “Once upon a Time O Best Beloved†and so begins one of the best loved and most respected collections of stories for children Rudyard Kipling’s Just So Stories. This edition includes the author’s own unique illustrations. Kipling’s bold linear fantasies in the style of art nouveau as well as his attention to realistic detail create an intriguing and strikingly different interpretation. The first tale “How the Whale Got Its Throat†a tall tale of a big whale sets the tone for these wild “Venturesome adventures†to use Kipling’s own words. One glance at the table of contents will reveal that the Just So Stories appeal most to inquisitive and fantasy-loving minds. These are stories which tell us of the Timeof Very Beginnings; how for instance the camel got its hump how the elephant got its trunk or how the alphabet was made. From the “more-than-oriental splendour†of the Parsee’s hat to “the great-grey-green Limpopo river†these stories are spun from Kipling’s travels and adventures in India. Kipling incorporates a host of exotic and bizarre creatures. Have you ever encountered the extraordinary Bi-Coloured-Python-Rock-Snake or Slow-and-Solid Tortoise or Yellow-Dog Dingo or the Rhinoceros with a horn on his nose two piggy eyes and few manners Written in a jocular and fanciful style with internal rhymes and lyrical phrases these Just So Stories demand to be read aloud. Kipling’s tales tell us how “it was so - just so - a little time ago†and not so long ago that we cannot continue to be amused and beguiled by these stories of the “High and Far Off Times†of Rudyard Kipling. Weathervane Books, (1978). hardcover books
