Illustrated by Florence Anderson
 |

The Rainbow Twins (1919) presents Anderson's
very own magical tale of adventures in Fairyland accompanied by a
masterful suite of colour and monotone
illustrations in what would have been a high grade presentation for the time.
The wonderful 13 colour illustrations are
accompanied by decorated End Papers and Anderson has contributed
monotone marginal illustrations to
every page of text.
Presented in an unusual large format by Joseph Johnson
(London), The Rainbow Twins was prepared for export
throughout the then-British Empire and
Commonwealth, in addition to the United States.

When presented on Greeting Cards, these
images are prepared as tipped-in
plates - in hommage to the hand-crafted
approach typical
of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades
of the 20th Century. Each card is
hand-finished and and the images are presented
on Ivory card stock with an accompanying envelope. The rear of each
card carries information about Florence
Anderson, this wonderful suite and the profiled
illustration - we have left the
interior of the cards blank so that you may write your own personal message.

Each of these large format prints is also accompanied by
information about Florence Anderson, this suite and the profiled
illustration.

than
they were off like a flash." |
