‎Just So Stories‎

‎Macmillan London. 1902. First edition. First state: the lettering on the spine has flaked off entirely. Quarto. pp vi 249. Full-page illustrations by the author. Pictorial red cloth blocked in white and black. The white blocking on these first state bindings was severely flaking even as the books were being produced and the publishers quickly switched to a more stable white pigment. One often sees copies described as having the pigment flaking much less than usual without mention that this therefore precludes them from being first state.Spine pigment completely gone also flaking on front and rear boards. Head and tail of spine slightly pushed. Bottom corner of front cover bumped. Very good. Scarce in the first state. Macmillan, London. hardcover‎

‎JUST SO STORIES‎

‎London: Macmillan and Co 1902. Very good plus. First edition of this children's classic with twelve myths about the origins of the animals illustrated by the author himself. Kipling wrote JUST SO STORIES for his own children particularly his first child Josephine "Effie" to help her fall asleep. Kipling was the son of an artist and the nephew of Edward Burne-Jones; his accomplished illustrations for these stories draw on influences as wide as Navajo art Japanese prints and the drawings of Aubrey Beardsley. While Kipling's own reputation would rise and fall alongside the culture of British imperialism these stories do not borrow from the folklore of other cultures: they constitute their own form of legend which English-speaking children of the next hundred years would experience through the sound of their parents' voices before bed. Large octavo. 9.25'' x 7''. Original full pictorial red cloth stamped in black and white spine lettered and ornamented in white. Illustrated by Kipling with 22 full-page black-and-white plates and vignettes throughout text. First impression in the second issue binding with higher quality white coloring used for stamping the first issue binding flaked severely and required change. 6 249 3 pages. Bookplate on front pastedown ink gift inscription on front free endpaper. Touch of toning to spine rubbing at spine ends and corners some foxing to first and last few leaves.
