A charming vintage edition of Mother Goose, or the Old Nursery Rhymes, illustrated throughout by the beloved Kate Greenaway and published by Frederick Warne & Co., London and New York (a mid-century printing).
Filled with Greenaway's gentle, rose-trimmed color illustrations of children in her signature Regency dress, this is a keepsake collection of the classic rhymes, from "Little Jack Horner" and "Jack and Jill" to "Little Bo-Peep" and "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary."
A pre-owned copy that retains its original pictorial dust jacket, which is increasingly scarce. The jacket shows age-appropriate wear at the edges and spine ends with some toning, while the interior plates remain bright and clean. A delightful gift or nursery shelf piece, here at Landmark Booksellers.
