Item description from seller

GRAHAME, Kenneth (1859–1932). The Wind in the Willows. Illustrated by Ernest H. Shepard. New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons, 1933. First American edition with Ernest H. Shepard’s illustrations. Small octavo (8vo). 312 pp. Publisher’s original blue cloth, with gilt spine lettering and a gilt vignette of Mole, Rat, and Toad to the front board. Illustrated throughout with Ernest H. Shepard’s black-and-white drawings; pictorial map endpapers printed in blue on yellow; top edge tinted; fore edge untrimmed. First published in 1908, The Wind in the Willows follows Mole, Rat, Badger, and the irrepressible Mr. Toad through a series of adventures along the riverbank and in the Wild Wood. Shepard’s illustrations first accompanied the work in the 1931 British edition and became the best-known visual interpretation of Grahame’s characters. Contents generally clean and unmarked, with light, even toning. Binding remains sound and firm. Blue cloth moderately rubbed and soiled, with fading to the spine and diminished spine lettering; wear and beginning fraying at the spine ends. The gilt vignette on the front board remains attractive. Lacking the dust jacket. A Good copy. [Attributes: Hard Cover; Illustrated.].…
