Zustand: Very good plus. First edition of PINOCCHIO in English, the rarer US issue, bound in the US from British sheets. After a career in journalism, Collodi turned to children's literature, first translating a collection of Perrault's fairy tales into Italian. Soon he would conceive of a distinctly Italian fairy tale, complex and fantastical: "Its lessons are simple, but it is not a simplistic text" (Wunderlich & Morrissey). A shorter version of the story first appeared serially in a children's magazine in Italy from July 7, 1881 to January 1883 and was first published in its full-length book form in Italy in 1883. This first edition in English is charmingly illustrated by Enrico Mazzanti, the illustrator of the Italian 1883 edition. "Mary Alice Murray's translation has stood the test of time [.] It faithfully conveys the directness, ironic humour, and pathos of the original as Collodi leads Pinocchio through the twists and turns of his captivating story" (Oxford History). A title in the Children's Library, this Cassell imprint is difficult to obtain. 6.25'' x 4''. Original decorative cloth with blue design repeated on edges. Illustrated by E. Mazzanti (incorrectly printed as "C. Mazzanti"). [8], 232 pages. The Bradley Martin copy with Mildred Greenhill's bookplate. Cloth age toned, though less than usual; tiny stain on edge of title, small inner hinge mend, else a nice copy.…

First edition in English, US issue, using the same sheets as the British edition with a cancel title page. The US issue is uncommon, likely because the publisher was soon declared insolvent. "Almost nothing else in children's literature equals [the story]. for wildness of invention" (Carpenter & Prichard) "The choice of an American distributor proved poor. Cassell (New York) had arranged to bind and market the Fisher Unwin printed sheets under its own name, and they released the novel in October 1892. Then, due to embezzlement by its president, Cassell was declared insolvent just eight months later" (Wunderlich, "Tribulations"). The story is "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" (Carpenter & Prichard). "What is the cruellest fate a literary classic might suffer? To be neglected, forgotten, or lost? No, crueller still is when it is debased and trivialized and then remembered. Such is the fate of Pinocchio in the United States" (Wunderlich & Morrissey). Wunderlich, 1892a. cf. Grolier Children's 100, 46. Humphrey Carpenter & Mari Prichard, The Oxford Companion to Children's Literature, 1984; Richard Wunderlich, "The Tribulations of Pinocchio: How Social Change Can Wreck a Good Story", Poetics Today, Spring, 1992, pp. 197-219; Richard Wunderluch & Thomas J. Morrissey, "The Desecration of Pinocchio in the United States", Children's Literature Association Quarterly, 1981, pp. 106-118. Small octavo.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. London: John Murray, 1892 First English edition of Pinocchio, translated from the Italian. 8vo. Original publisher's cloth. A sound copy in the original binding, the spine heavily worn and faded with lettering largely lost, the extremities frayed, as often encountered; boards rubbed. Internally clean and holding well. Housed in a custom-made leather effect solander box, decoratively titled and designed with Pinocchio motifs, there is a bump to the top right corner of the spine otherwise the box is rated fine. Pinocchio is one of the world's most translated books, now available in more than 260 languages, and is recognised as the foundational text of Italian children's literature. Its cultural influence is incalculable, extending from Benedetto Croce's critical championing to Walt Disney's 1940 animated feature -- which, though the best-known adaptation, substantially softens and sentimentalises Collodi's darker, more morally stringent original.

Firenze, Bemporad & Figlio Editori, 1919, Seconda edizione. Restauro professionale al dorso per il resto ottimo esemplare. Rarissimo a trovarsi con la legatura editoriale conservata. Un'edizione destinata a fare storia, tra- sformando per sempre l'immagine del burattino di Collodi. Abbandonando tanto i tratti nervosi e duri di Mazzanti quanto il realismo descrittivo di Chiostri, il primo «Pinocchio» a colori, firmato da Attilio Mussino per Bemporad, ridefinì la fisionomia dei personaggi. Il bambino di legno è qui addolcito nel volto e nel corpo, con un colletto bianco che prende il posto della gorgiera. Il Gatto e la Volpe sono antropomorfifizzati,mentre Mangiafuoco assume sembianze a metà tra l'umano e il mostruoso. E come non citare la Fata Turchina, da Mussino meravigliosamente ritratta con splendidi accenti liberty nei toni dell'azzurro e dell'oro. Un capolavoro assoluto, carico di dinamiche scene corali disseminate lungo i 500 disegni e le 50 tavole che adornano il testo. Uscito a dispense tra il 2 ottobre 1910 e il 10 settembre 1911 e apparso in volume con fine stampa fissata al 7 settembre 1911, la copertina in cartonato della prima edizione vedeva al piatto anteriore l'immagine del burattino, con la grande scritta «Pinocchio» in oro al piatto anteriore e al dorso, benché alcuni esemplari riportano invece una legatura in tela grigia con la sola immagine di Pinocchio al piatto anteriore, del tutto simile a quella della seconda edizione datata 1919 qui presentata. in 4°, cartonato editoriale con l'immagine di Pinocchio al piatto anteriore (tagli verticali in argento), pp. [2] 485 [1].

A substantial and beautifully illustrated edition of this children's classic which inspired Disney to create one of his best animated features in 1940. Carlo Lorenzini (1826 - 1890) was a prolific journalist, playwright and novelist who adopted Collodi as his pen-name from the name of his childhood village in Tuscany. He was an adherent of the Risorgimento movement which achieved the unification of Italy in 1860 and he became involved in the administration and especially education in the region of Florence. In this capacity he was involved in translating and writing didactic works for the youth of the "New Italy." He launched a weekly magazine for children in 1881, in which he began weekly installments of "The Story of a Puppet". When he ended the story abruptly with the lynching of the protagonist Pinocchio, his readers protested, so the puppet was brought him back to life through the intercession of the Blue Fairy, and became the subject of further installments, published over the course of almost a year (1882-83) and collected under the tilte of "The Adventures of Pinocchio." «Collodi's picaresque tale proceeds through fortuitous episodes, demonstrating his awareness of the historic force of "fable," a continuous narrative momentum, and inimitable glints of sociopolitical irony.» . «Pinocchio was drafted in the Fascist cause, metamorphosing from a greedy, ungrateful, lazy puppet, into a model young citizen of Mussolini's Italy. Similarly, the Disney animated masterpiece of 1940 with songs by Leigh Hairline has been accused of having corrupted the literary classic even as it brought the character to a much wider audience.» (from The Grolier Club, One Hundred Books Famous in Children's Literature, 46) Attilio Mussino (1878 - 1954) was an Italian painter and cartoonist, trained at the celebrated Albertina Academy of Fine Arts in Turin. During World War I, Mussino was a soldier who used his artistic skills to draw scenes of the French battlefields and everyday activities of military operations. Mussino illustrated numerous children's books, including the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, and Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer, but is best known for designing the illustrations for the first color edition of Carlo Collodi's The Adventures of Pinocchio in 1911.
