Presentation copy, inscribed on the recto of the front free endpaper: “To his niece Phyllis from W. Graham Robertson, Sandhills, 1908.” This title is the successor to his Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh and Other Pageants for a Baby Girl. Robertson had no niece, we speculate that the recipient could be Phyllis Terry, daughter of Fred Terry and niece of his close friend Ellen Terry. Some wear at head and foot of spine, a 2-inch split in cloth along front joint, and damp-bleaching along the fore-edges of the boards. Internally clean and tight.
