Taylor, The Late Miss (Edited and Enlarged By Mrs Sarah Green Fatherless Fanny or a Young Lady's First Entrance Into Life, By the Late Miss Taylor - Edited and Enlarged By Mrs Sarah Green.
London Fisher, Son and Co Hardcover Good+
Though the title states 'Fatherless Fanny or a Young Lady's First Entrance Into Life' - the top of the pages all through refer to 'Fatherless Fanny or The Little Mendicant'. Rebound in a plain chocolate brown buckram with gilt tiling and a library number to the foot of the spine. Black and White Pictorial Engraved Title page and Portrait frontispiece of 'Fanny', and 7 other b/w engraved plates. (8 in all) 762 pp. No printed title - and no plate list either - so I am unable to collate this. 1833 is on the Title Page - but the plates are dated between 1832 and 1835 - so the correct date is ...?. The ending of this edition also differs from earlier versions of Miss Taylor's 'Fatherless Fanny'. This is also a novel that has been attributed to several different authors. Although this copy is Ex Lib - it is Ex Refence Lib with only a very small 1.7cm diameter stamp to the reverse of the plates only, traces of a label having been removed from the front pastedown, and the spine nos - but NO other markings. Internally some scattered foxing, browning to page edges and a few marks. A few pages have been repaired and a couple with heavy paper edge repairs, but overall clean and very tight. An interesting version of this classic tale.; 50447; Ex-ref Lib Mimimal Marks; 8vo (chunky)
