scrubbed; recased with original endpapers retained, the Preface (vi-viii) is bound before the title; 1/4 morocco folding case. London: Grant Richards, 1899 FIRST EDITION. "Since that time [1961] at least six other copies of the book have been sold, but it is very doubtful that many more will come to light... there would probably be fewer copies located than of the notoriously rare and suppressed 1865 Alice." --Schiller, "The Story of Little Black Sambo," (The Book Collector, Autumn 1974, pages 381-86).
