A deliciously spirited cat-story, with charming illustrations'. The original dated 1811 can go for 2000 USD so this delicious 1903 re-print is an absolute snip and just as delightful!! It is not certain whom the author was, but is thought to be one Mrs. Elizabeth Ludlow.
Felissa, the kitten, was an aristocrat ... who had a wonderful kittenhood in the castle of the Earl of Glamorgan. But one day as Felissa approaches Cathood - she is given to the Earl's grand-daughter, Lady Louisa. Lady Louisa, as children are wont to do dresses Felissa up and accidently sticks a pin in Felissa's back ... startled Felissa claws louisa's face ... and is forced to leave the castle ..... [happy ending!!]
Written for children, and tremendously successful besides being a charming story it makes a point ... that we should all be kind to the other creatures with whom we share the planet ...
The colour plates are wonderful - and its nice to see the accessories - a pianting of Lord Nelson's Victory a book on Bish Art ...
A slim volume it measures 5 1/4 by 3 1/2 - the cloth binding is somewhat shelf worn - and the paper title on the spine rather distressed. Other wise in very nice condition
128 kittenish pages!!
A must for all admirers of cats and kittens or collectors of children's books/

However there are NO NEW TARRIFS on BOOKS, WORKS of ART, MAPS other works on paper and similar.
Or on anything else I sell that was originally created/manufactured in the USA.
I ship with royal Mail /Parcel Force.
They have a system in place that calculates any new tarrif due, which I pay and remits it to the US government.
For the above categories, their calculations are zero although if items originate in China they currently attact a 10% tarrif.
