Cinderella is one of the most famous and well-known folk tales ever told, and C.S. Evans’ 1919 first edition is one of, if not the most desirable printing of the classic tale. It features the artwork of Arthur Rackham and was part of a limited print run and signed by Rackham! (this copy is numbered no. 239). It is bound in the original Japanese vellum binding with gilt titling. A masterpiece of valuable literature!
