1908 Sir Thomas Thumb - Adventures Of A Fairy Knight Antique Childrens Book

Sir Thomas Thumb, or, The Wonderful Adventures Of A Fairy Knight
Published by Thomas Nelson & Sons Ltd: London 1908

" Sir Thomas Thumb, or The Wonderful Adventures of a Fairy Knight is a beautifully imaginative Edwardian fairy tale published by Thomas Nelson & Sons in 1908. Presented in a striking pictorial cloth binding with gilt titles and a vivid cover illustration, the story reimagines the traditional English folk character of Tom Thumb as a gallant miniature knight embarking on brave adventures through enchanted forests and fairy realms. Richly illustrated with colour plates, including delicate depictions of Queen Mab and other fantastical scenes, it blends Arthurian romance with whimsical fantasy in a way that delighted early 20th-century readers.

This 1908 Nelson edition exemplifies the golden age of illustrated children's books, with its period binding design and high-quality production typical of the publisher's work. The tale's fusion of chivalric themes and fairy mythology offers both moral and imaginative appeal, making it a prized volume for collectors of Edwardian fantasy literature, early fairy-tale illustration, and decorative antique children's books."
