The Fairy Caravan. By Beatrix Heelis (“Beatrix Potter”)
Beatrix Potter, 1929
POTTER, Beatrix (1866-1943). The Fairy Caravan. By Beatrix Heelis (“Beatrix Potter”). N.p.: Copyright of the Author, 1929.
One of only 100 copies of the English copyright edition. In order to secure copyright, the author had 100 sets of sheets sent over from David McKay in America. She discarded the first eighteen pages including the Preface and Dedication and had a new set with new illustrations printed at Ambleside by George Middleton. These new sheets were bound together with the remaining American sheets into cloth-backed boards. To obtain copyright in Great Britain, Potter registered some copies at Stationers’ Hall and a few copies were sold over the counter. Linder, p. 292ff; Quinby 29.
Quarto. Illustrated throughout including color frontispiece and 5 color plates. Original cloth-backed printed green boards (corners bumped, some creasing to spine). Provenance: Harry Bacon Collamore, noted Potter collector of Hartford, Connecticut (bookplate).
