Puck of Pook's Hill
New York: Doubleday Page & Company 1906. First US edition first printing. Publisher's green cloth pictorially stamped in black with image of a ship titled in gilt teg. Mild foxing frontis tissue-guard extremities rubbed internally clean binding tight and square a near fine copy. Illustrated by Arthur Rackham; extra-illustrated with thirteen additional half-tone illustrations depicting scenes alongside Kipling's stories. 277pp. EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED BRITISH FANTASY<br /> <br /> In a whimsy-laced journey through time the trickster Puck summons visitors from across England’s past—from Roman legionaries to Norman knights and Magna Carta–era merchants—each weaving captivating stories steeped in history and folklore. Framed by evocative poems these vignettes blend fantasy with national legacy culminating in a celebration of England’s evolving identity. The first US edition is notable for its four haunting color plates by Arthur Rackham absent from the British edition.<br /> <br /> This copy is further distinguished as an extra-illustrated example enriched by a previous owner with thirteen additional half-tone illustrations depicting scenes of Ancient Rome. The juxtaposition of Kipling’s imaginative retelling of English history with Roman imagery creates a layered dialogue between text and illustration offering a fascinating glimpse into the interpretive creativity of early 20th-century collectors.<br /> <br /> Livingston 283.

Four illustrations in color by Arthur Rackham. 8vo publisher's original green cloth the spine and upper cover lettered and pictorially decorated in gilt and black with the design of the famous caravelle sailing ship. 8 277 pp. A very pleasing copy gilt and cloth bright only light age evidence with slight rubbing to the tips and spine ends and slight bowing of the binding.
