New York: H. M. Caldwell Co., 1897. First American Edition . Decorative Cloth. Fine/No Jacket. From the recently auctioned collection of M. B. Goldstone--with his penciled signature to the front free endpaper. A superb fine copy in copper colored cloth with elaborate gilt decorations and lettering to the front board and spine. Solid gilt top edge and handcut paper. This is the special edition limited to 250 numbered copies--this being copy 84. This copy is in near mint condition--with the appearance of never being opened or read--some very mild soiling to the back cloth board--otherwise as new as the day it was published. Guelette originally published his tales in France in the early 18th Century and he died in 1768. This special edition is embellished with etchings and photogravures--all protected by the original tissue guards.
