Gulliver’s Travels. Into Several Remote Nations of the World. Illustrated by Arthur Rackham. London: J. M. Dent & Co., 1909. First Edition, Limited Issue. Large, 4to. Top edge gilt, others uncut. White cloth with gold lettering on cover and spine; original wine-red ties. Mild toning to cloth, ownership name to endpaper, overall a nice bright copy.

This limited edition of 1909 uses the material from the original 1900 Rackham edition done before his success permitted such lavish limited editions in presentation format.

A desirable Rackham edition of one of the great works of English literature, combining fine printing, generous format, and the illustrator’s distinctive visual interpretation of Swift’s fantastical voyages.
