He states 'I am very glad to have that charming Gilbert book [.] I am a little out of sympathy, I confess, with your last sentence. I concede the sentimental streak in Gilbert but that does not seem to be incompatible with that peculiar form of extravagance [.] and would Gilbert have stood for having his drawings improved by the engravers?'.The Bab Ballads became famous on their own, as well as being a source for plot elements, characters and songs that Gilbert used in the Gilbert and Sullivan operas. In the publisher's original cloth binding, with pictorial onlay to front board centre. Fading to back strip, otherwise externally excellent. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright.
