Illustrated by Arthur Rackham. First Edition. Very Good/Good. Elephant Folio - over 15" - 23" tall Boxed portfolio of 12 proof-size plates, fully bound in ivory vellum with gilt titling to upper board, and later silk ties to style.

The only collection of Rackham's plates issued in portfolio format, here are 12 of the artist's personal favourites from Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens (1906). Intended for framing, the 12 plates were reproduced in full size from the original artwork, mounted on card and matted; each plate has a tissue guard printed with a quotation from the book. A stunning example of this rare and highly collectable portfolio published by Hodder & Stoughton in 1912. Housed in scarce original card box which is in surprisingly good condition.
