Description: First American Edition, first issue (simultaneous with the Hodder and Stoughton London edition). The true first is distinguished by three points: 1. Scribner's seal, 2."Published October, 1911" to copyright page and 3. A "$1.50 net" price to the jacket's front cover (later issues priced at $2.50 on the front flap). As such copies without jackets (though still published October, 1911 & with seal) are of uncertain issuance, while those without the conspicuous oddly-placed price are second states. A fine copy with Peter, Mermaids & the Click-Tock Crocodile to the front and Captain Hook to the spine. First issue jacket repeats the binding images and adds the price. Jacket frayed along top with not entirely successful archival repairs from long ago. Book itself is as new: tight hinges and gutters; no owners' names, no bookplates, no sunning nor wear; gilt is bright & clean. "Sir James Matthew Barrie (1860 - 1937) was a Scottish author and dramatist, the child of a family of small-town weavers, and best remembered today as the creator of Peter Pan. He was educated in Scotland but moved to London, where he developed a career as a novelist and playwright. There he met the Llewelyn Davies boys who inspired him to write about a baby boy who has magical adventures in Kensington Gardens (included in The Little White Bird), then to write Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, a "fairy play" about an ageless boy and an ordinary girl named Wendy who have adventures in the fantasy setting of Neverland. Peter Pan quickly overshadowed his previous work [and was] credited with popularizing the name Wendy, which was very uncommon previously. Barrie unofficially adopted the Davies boys following the deaths of their parents. Before his death, he gave the rights to the Peter Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, which continues to benefit from them."

Description: HARDBACK - A fine book with the pictoral frontispiece, and an additional eleven black and white illustrations by F.D. Bedford. The green boards are fresh, and the gilt illustration to the front panel, and to the spine are fine and unfaded. The book is tightly bound with sharp spine tips and corners. ( there is a small bump to the bottom corner of the front board, but the corner is still sharp ) Internally, the pages are very clean and white, with just the odd foxing spot throughout the text and a little dustiness to the top page block. The dust wrapper is in fine condition for its age. There is very minor chipping to the spine tips and to the corners of the front and rear flap folds. There is fading to the spine, but the gilt is fresh and un faded to the front board. In summary, a superb book in its original first issue dust wrapper which is in excellent condition for its age, especially as the wrapper is very thin and notoriously fragile. Please view the numerous scans for an indication as to the titles overall condition.
