Potter (Beatrix) The Tale of Peter Rabbit, first trade edition, second or third printing, with "wept" for "shed" on p.51, colour frontispiece and 30 illustrations by the author, grey leaf patterned endpapers, contemporary ink gift inscription dated 1902 on front endpaper, occasional light creasing and marginal surface-marks, edges lightly rubbed, small marginal surface abrasions on pp.22-23 & 52-57, cracking to gutter, holding firm, light ?off setting to pp.94-95, original dark green boards, mounted colour illustration to upper cover, small repair to spine head, backstrip a little rubbed, dulled and faded, light rubbing to spine and corner tips, edges lightly rubbed, top edge darkened, [Linder p.421], 16mo, Frederick Warne and Co., [November or December 1902]. *** The first trade edition of the first book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter. Originally published in two privately printed editions of 250 and 200 copies (December 1901 and February 1902, respectively), this first trade edition was the first in which all of Potter's designs are printed in color. Leslie Linder records that "green boards were introduced after the first printing" but aside from this "there are no recognizable differences between the first three printings". The words "wept big tears" on p.51 were changed to "shed big tears" in the fourth printing of April 1903. *** Provenance: Dominic Winter, Modern First Editions Children's & Illustrated Books, 20th June 2019, lot 577.
