Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. 9p., rubricated heads and numerals, hardbound in 7x5 inch boards, cloth backstrip, and a printed paper cover label. A nice production; as it were, fine-press once removed. Casing is a little worn, toned and scratched; lies flat and square, a good to very good copy. Pressman and introducer Dille has reduced the origina…l story to expert doggerel; "I think," he says, "my preference for this particular legend is because of the denouement, which involves not only the pharmacological effects of cyanide but also the delicate accomplishment of homicide the the method of Burke and Hare".

Tall 12mo.192 pp. Frontispiece, 5 engraved plates; foxing. Contemporary half-calf, marbled boards; corners showing, else very good. The Ingoldsby legends were first printed in 1837 in Bentley's Miscellany and later in New Monthly Magazine. Their popularity with readers resulted in their being collected to a book which went under… a number of editions. The stories themselves range from retellings of folktales, to original stories, however most of the legends are satirical takes on common legends and myths.

Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. (London: Eyre & Spottiswoode 1888). First UK Edition Thus in dustwrapper. Initially appearing as a serial in Bentley's Miscellany of 1837, then collected in The Ingoldsby Legends of 1840, and then issued together with The Bagman's Dog in 1876, I believe this is the first separate edition. Large format ha…rdback with bevelled board edges in dustwrapper, comprising fixed front and rear end-papers, and 22 sheets, loose, as published, being two blank sheets, the title page, and nineteen story sheets, printed rectos only.

Scattered insect damage to boards, but not through cloth. A good copy only. "In 1898 Messrs. Dent and Co. first published 'The Ingoldsby Legends,' with about one hundred illustrations of mine. This book has met with a very satisfactory reception, but the publisher's have felt with me that, with the addition of new drawings, a careful overhauling would make it worthy of publication in a more important form, in which greater prominence could be given to the illustrations by better and larger reproductions, including a greater number of illustrations in colour. "To this end the following has been done: "The frontispiece and the coloured illustration facing page 508 have been specially drawn, and all the other illustrations in colour have been worked on to a considerable extent, and specially coloured for this edition. A few illustrations in the earlier edition have been omitted and in their place have been added those facing page 254 and on pages vi, 25, 37, 316, 320, and 333. "Many of the pen drawings have been reconsidered and worked on again - those which have been worked on to any great extent being now signed with both dates, 1898 and 1907. Of the rest, reproductions on a larger scale have been made in all but a few cases, and the text has been revised and entirely reset for this edition' (Rackham, Prefatory Note).

Signed limited edition, number 377 of 560 copies signed by Rackham, one of 500 for sale in England. Rackham's previous illustrated edition of The Ingoldsby Legends, published in 1898, had no deluxe signed issue. For this edition, it was revised and largely redrawn, so that "greater prominence could be given to the illustrations…by better and larger reproductions, including a greater number of illustrations in colour" (Prefatory Note). These popular tales, which were purportedly based on the author's discovery of old documents, were in fact mostly reworkings of known narrative sources such as Kentish myth and Sir Walter Scott. Thomas Ingoldsby was the pseudonym of Richard Harris Barham (1788-1845), whose "knowledge of such areas as heraldry and witchcraft also lends a degree of authenticity to the Legends" (ODNB). Initially appearing in the serial Bentley's Miscellany in 1837, the tales were first published in book form in 1840 and inspired numerous illustrators. Latimore & Haskell, pp. 30-31; Riall, p. 83. Quarto (271 x 212 mm). Colour frontispiece and 23 colour plates mounted on green paper with captioned tissue guards, black and white illustrations in the text, by Rackham. Contemporary red morocco, spine lettered in gilt, double gilt rule to covers, gilt turn-ins, marbled endpapers, gilt edges. Presentation inscription to initial binder's blank "Henry Bradshaw-Isherwood given me by the Lady Newton Nov. 21. 1907"; neat pencilled note of acquisition to rear binder's blank dated 1924. Morocco a little dulled, very light toning to contents, light marking to initial few pages, a few tissue-guards and plates a little creased. A very good copy.
