"Undine" by Friedrich de la Motte Fouque illustrated by Arthur Rackham. 1909 William Heinemann hardcover, 136 pages. (GOOD) William Heinemann UK print with really lovely gold embossments on the cover and spine. I believe this is the first printing, as no printing impression data is listed. Has binding repairs throughout the book. Gutter cracks at the beginning and end of the book, first page is loose on the bottom. Rest of book is holding up fairly well with the repairs. One of the thin tissue type pages covering a plate is loose on the bottom as well. All plates are present and in good shape. Some page edge-wear, and pages are browned from age. Hardcovers have a good deal of edge-wear, corner bumps, scuffing. Spine has some fading, but the gold embossed text and images on the front cover and spine have held up quite nicely. Vintage bookstore/distro sticker on the back endpapers, and a price in pencil. Rest of book is unmarked. Free priority shipping!
