Description:
London: J. M. Dent & Co., 1907. Hardcover. Fair. xix, 548 p. 26 cm. Has 34 out of the 36 called-for tipped-in colour plates and 66 b&w in-text illustrations. Green cloth with gold print. Some scuffing to cloth. Dampstain on front. Holes in hinges. Text block edge roughened. Pages 33 to 39 have large tears in margins. Foxing to first pages including frontispiece tissue guard. A few pages uncut. A collection of myths, legends, ghost stories and poetry, supposedly written by Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Manor, actually a pen-name of Barham, an English clergyman. The amusing stories have been illustrated by many artists over the years, including John Leech, George Cruikshank, John Tenniel, but surely Arthur Rackham is the most suitable for these tales.

Description:
London: William Heinemann, Ltd., 1929. 4to, xix, 549 pp. with 24 color plates, 12 other plates and 66 illustrations. Gray cloth with gilt lettering and black illustrations to upper cover and backstrip. Binding lightly worn at edges. § Later edition. A very handsome presentation of Barham's hugely popular tales, first issued serially in 1837. Writing under the pseudonym of Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Manor, Barham's collection of myths, ghost stories, and poetry was so influential that for well over a hundred years even fictional characters referred to it warmly (Allan Quatermain and Lord Peter Wimsey among many others). Rackham's illustrations are perfectly suited to the stories, supernatural, whimsical, and comic in turn. Latimore & Haskell p. 30. Riall p. 30.

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…

Description:
London: J.M. Dent & Co, 1907. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/very good +. Rackham, Arthur. First trade edition with additional Rackham illustrations on enlarged paper, quarto size, 568 pp., in original dust jacket. This book was first published in 1898 with only twelve illustrations, this being the first trade edition of the newly enlarged version of 1907, which had many new illustrations. British illustrator Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) is credited with renewing interest in book illustration at a vital moment of advances in printing technology. The subtle colours and thin feral lines were unlike anything that had come before, as if plucked from the fog of a wild imagination, breathing new life into the whole of children's book illustration. The somewhat grotesque quality of Rackham's figures are perfectly suited for the metrical myths, legends, and ghost stories written by Richard Harris Barham (1788-1845), an English clergyman who is best known by his pen name Thomas Ingoldsby. ___DESCRIPTION:…

London: J. M. Dent & Co; E. P. Dutton & Co, New York,, 1907. Signed by Rackham 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…

A review in The Athenaeum praised Rackham's "admirable gift for fantastic design, for human satire, as well as for 'Witches and warlocks, ghosts, goblins, and ghouls'... and the results... are likely to take the town by storm".
