  • No date, WorldCat library records imply
  • Publ date and price from listings 1907-10-19 The Athenaeum 4173, p482 "List of New Books"; The Spectator 99.4138, p576 "Publications of the Week".
  • One dealer at ABEbooks.com (Arroyo Seco Books, Pasadena, California; Member IOBA; Inventory # 008923) describes the front cover and incomplete dustjacket, gives the 1907 date, and otherwise reports in part: • Publisher: John Lane, The Bodley Head, London / New York • Illustrator: Color Plates By Edmund Dulac (Cover and Dust Jacket Design By William Henry Romaine Walker) • Frontispiece and seven full page color plates by Edmund Dulac WorldCat records report, infer, and guess these data variously. The dealer report seems credible. Later 117-page eds. from other publishers (viewed at HathiTrust, transcribed at Gutenberg) list 8 illustrations, show the frontispiece and 7 plates not included in the pagination.
  • Front cover image located online 2017-10-01 (anangelinthegarden.blogspot.co.nz/p/lucy.html and au.pinterest.com/psychiccourtney/fairies/) fit ABEbooks dealer description of the 1907 first edition (above) --in particular, "Covers with green background and design in blue, white, and faint pink, with black outlines".
