The Queen Who Flew. A Fairy Tale. Ford, Ford Madox, As Ford Madox Hueffer.

First edition, signed limited issue. Number 25 of 25 copies signed by the author and bound in vellum. This deluxe issue uniquely features the Burne Jones design on the cover - in the other issues it features only as the frontispiece. There were three issues: coarse-grained cloth, blue-grey cloth and this, the deluxe edition, which is, according to Ford's bibliographer, "about three-quarters of an inch taller than the others". This was the author's fifth book and published with his name incorrectly spelled on the title page ("Ford Huffer"). Harvey A5. Octavo. Original vellum, spine and front board lettered in gilt, illustration by Edward Burne-Jones on front board in red. Housed in a custom cream cloth slipcase with brown morocco opening. Frontispiece by Sir E. Burne-Jones and border design by C. R. B. Barrett. Minor soiling and fading to spine, foxing to top edge, browning to endpapers and occasional foxing, creases and small tears to free endpapers, but a near-fine copy with unopened gatherings.
