First Rackham edition, in a handsome prize binding for Tonbridge pupil and artist Captain Adrian Waterlow (1893-1978). The recipient, who was the son of the painter Sir Ernest Albert Waterlow, exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1937 and 1938. He previously saw action at the Battle of Loos and was retired from frontline duty after being severely injured during the first day of fighting. In these memorable illustrations, Rackham "developed his gift for drawing witches, gnomes, fairies, and anthropomorphized trees and brought them to a pitch of vivid characterization, sometimes with an unsettling frisson of horror" (ODNB). Latimore & Haskell, p. 32; Riall, p.87. The Tonbridgian, vol. 23, no. 7, July 1918, p. 394. Quarto (241 x 172 mm). Colour frontispiece and 39 colour plates tipped to heavy off-white paper with grey background and frame, captioned tissue guards, line drawings in the text, all by Rackham. Vignette title page printed in black and brown. Bound in a red morocco prize binding by Bickers & Son in 1909, spine lettered in gilt and ruled in blind, gilt arms of Tonbridge school on front cover and the Skinners' Company on rear, twin gilt fillet on turn-ins, marbled endpapers, edges gilt, red silk bookmarker. Prize bookplate signed by Tonbridge headmaster Charles Lowry for Adrian Waterlow (see note). Rubbing to edges, internal foxing not affecting bright plates. A pleasingly bound copy.

Condición: Near Fine. Forty tipped-in color illustrations mounted on brown paper by Arthur Rackham with thirty black and white drawings. Ilustrador. Limited edition. CRAZED FOR FAIRIES Escaping from the rapid industrialization of the turn of the century, Edwardian England's imagination turned to fairies, finding perfect matches in tales like Peter Pan and the illustrations of Arthur Rackham. Eerie and fae, Rackham indulged himself in Shakespeare's Midsummer-Night's Dream with the dreamy Fairyland residents, Puck's cheeky endeavors, and ornate landscape details. William Heinemann published this signed limited edition in 1908, beautifully capturing the luxury of the golden age illustrated gift book in its full red morocco binding with Rackham's illustrations matching the dream-like quality that comes from stepping into Shakespeare's most performed comedy. Limited to 1000 numbered and signed copies, of which this is 662, signed by Rackham on the limitation page. [Latimore & Haskell, p. 32]. Head and tail of front joint with 1" split but still holding firm, slightly bowed boards, light shelf wear, still near fine. Bound by J. May in full red crushed morocco, ruled and fleurons stamped in gilt with floral spine decorations, teg. Signed. Nº de ref. del artículo: 189805
