Not paginated; text pages printed on slightly thicker paper; beautifully illustrated with vibrant colour plates in the usual CMB style printed on glossy paper (see picture), with a black-and-white frontispiece (most unusually not coloured in!); endpapers delightfully decorated in blue and white with a double page illustration of a fairy and a baby fairy (see picture); inscription dated Dec 1928 and a name written on the reverse of the front fep; stain marks to front fep and half title page; half title page and title page detached together; some loosening/foxing/browning and slight signs of use in places but overall the inside is in very good condition.
