Hard. A delightful and extraordinarily elusive survivor of Edwardian juvenile publishing, this desirable May 1909 third impression of Harvey Gaskell's O'Kissme San: A Doll from Japan captures the peak of the early twentieth-century fascination with the Far East. Published in London by Dean & Son Ltd., a firm celebrated for its pioneering contributions to novelty and nursery literature, this charming volume presents a whimsical narrative in verse that follows the endearing exploits of an exotic doll in an English household. Coming hot on the heels of the 1908 first printing, this rapid re-impression underscores the immense popularity of the title during a period when the Anglo-Japanese Alliance fueled a passionate cultural vogue for Japanese motifs across Great Britain, beautifully mirroring the era's artistic sensibilities. The true marvel of this scarce volume lies in its brilliant color-printed plates, executed with masterful decorative precision by artists M.E. Thompson and H.M. Pemberton. Because these delicate, fragile volumes were designed for the enthusiastic, rough handling of young readers, surviving copies from any early print run are exceptionally rare on the open market. Preserved in beautiful condition with its original paper-covered boards intact, this third impression represents a highly significant acquisition for serious collectors of historic children's literature, toy-themed poetry, and Edwardian color-plate books. Spine is cracked however the pages are bright.green ribbon on front board in poor condition. Japan.…
