First edition in English. "One of the best known fantasies, and the most popular children's book to come out of Italy. The story was written for a Rome children's magazine, the Giornale dei bambini, where the first instalment appeared on 7 July 1881. It was published as a book in 1883 under the title Le Avventure di Pinocchio: Storia di un burattino (History of a Puppet), and quickly became a best-seller. Lorenzini's publisher is said to have made a fortune out of it, but Lorenzini himself died too early [in 1890] to witness its international success. Almost nothing else in children's literature equals Pinocchio for wildness of invention" (Humphrey Carpenter and Mari Prichard: The Oxford Companion to Children's Literature). Grolier Children's 100, 46. Small octavo. Half-title and title printed in red and black, frontispiece with tissue-guard and illustrations throughout by C. Mazzanti. Original patterned cloth printed in blue, titles to spine and front cover in blue, patterned edges and endpapers. Extremities rubbed, minor wear to tips, cloth a little darkened, book block cracked in a couple of places but holding firm; a very good copy. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 119778
