Hello everyone,
Would there be interest in a thread on illustrated storybooks from the early twentieth century?
I love how the illustrations, typography and page design give each edition its own character.
One of my favorites: Edmund Dulac’s illustrations for The Snow Queen from 1911 :

Arthur Rackham and Kay Nielsen also come to mind.
Do you have favourite editions or illustrators to recommend?
I’d also be interested in modern reprints that do justice to the original colour plates.
