Add to basketHardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Thus. This copy is bound in publisher's original light blue cloth covered boards with bright silver gilt titling to the spine There is a small neat inscription to the f.e.p. The unclipped dust wrapper has some minimal edge wear to the top edge, there is some mark…ing to the front panel and is sunned to the spine it has now been covered in clear, removable, protective film. There is a publisher's paper panel to the title page covering the original publishers ( Guilford Press Ltd & Wilfrid David Ltd.) Although the reverse of the title page credits Edward Ardizzone with the design of the title page and the jacket only the title page is clearly his work. The cover is an illustration by thackeray as are all the other illustrations in the book. The Rose and The Ring is a satirical work of fantasy fiction written by William Makepeace Thackeray, originally published at Christmas 1854 (though dated 1855).[1] It criticises, to some extent, the attitudes of the monarchy and those at the top of society and challenges their ideals of beauty and marriage. Set in the fictional countries of Paflagonia and Crim Tartary, the story revolves around the lives and fortunes of four young royal cousins, Princesses Angelica and Rosalba, and Princes Bulbo and Giglio. Each page is headed by a line of poetry summing up the plot at that point and the storyline as a whole is laid out, as the book states, as "A Fireside Pantomime". This edition had illustrations by Thackeray who had once intended a career as an illustrator. Ref SS5. W. M. Thackeray & Edward Ardizzone (illustrator).

Add to basketCondition: Very Good+. Knickerbocker Nugget. A "White and Gold" "Knickerbocker Nugget." A lovely small volume bound in white and trimmed in gold, with gold cover design and gold-gilt edges. 209 pp. with eight pages of ads in the rear of the book. The cover is slightly soiled and the spine slightly sunned, otherwise a lovely soli…d copy. Would make a very sweet gift for a rare book collector. "The Rose and the Ring" was written just two years before the release of Thackeray's "The Virginians," which was released by the well known Bradbury & Evans. "The Rose and the Ring" carries Thackeray's characteristic criticisms of monarchy, high society rules and the status quo notions of beauty. The original edition contained illustrations designed by Thackeray himself, who had once dreamed of a career as an artist/illustrator. Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki chose this title in 2010 for his list of 50 essential children's books. William Thackeray is best known for his satirical masterpiece "Vanity Fair" but also famed for "The Luck of Barry Lyndon," which Stanley Kubrick adapted to film in 1975. Thackeray was born in Calcutta, during British colonial rule, and spent the majority of his early works unleashing criticism on the dreadful formalities of British aristocracy. A proficient novelist and poet, he left behind more than two dozen works for readers to enjoy.
