Light tan paper covers with pasted on photo-image of Peter Pan in green and sepia to front. Title in green and dark brown to front. Edgewear to pamphlet, with small chips to corners of cover photo. Laid in: 8.25 in. x 5.75 in. insert printed in red and black entitled: "For the Benefit of Late Comers, The Following Outline of the Story of Peter Pan Is Given." Insert has horizontal crease across center. Laid in: Postcard of Maude Adams in full Peter Pan dress by Detroit Publishing Co. (Photo by Sarony). From Utah Women's History: Known as the most famous and highest-paid actress of her time, Maude Adams (1872-1953 was an incredibly beautiful and intensely private person who donned so many personalities; she alluded to her own as being 'the one I knew least." In addition to her acting success, she helped invent technology to improve stage lighting and develop color film photography....In 1889, Maude met producer Charles Frohman, who propelled her career forward by casting her in a variety of successful roles, including a series of plays with leading man John Drew, Jr. Audiences came to see Drew, but were impressed with Maude. During the opening of The Masked Ball in October 1892, the audience gave her a two-minute standing ovation and 12 curtain calls. Harpers Weekly wrote: "It is difficult to see just who is going to prevent Miss Adams from becoming the leading exponent of light comedy in America." Maude's greatest successes came by acting in several of J. M. Barrie's plays. Her most famous role was debuting the character Peter Pan on Broadway in 1905. She acted in more than 1, 500 stage performances of Peter Pan and made $20, 000 a month. Children would attend the performance night after night, memorizing all of the lines. At her peak, Maude was earning a yearly income of more than one million dollars. Maude wrote of her feelings about Peter Pan: It was not only that Peter was the most delightful of all the plays, but it opened a new world to me, the beautiful world of children. My childhood and girlhood had been spent with older people, and children had always been rather terrifying to me...Children remained an enigma to me until, when I was a woman grown, Peter gave me open sesame; for whether I understood children or not, they understood Peter.

This is the Peter Pan who plays in Kensington Gardens retold by May Byron with the permission of the author and illustrated by the inimitable Arthur Rackham. No date; circa 1929. Bright green buckram (full-cloth) boards, crisp black cover and spine titles, design, light shelf wear. Stylish vignette at cover of babe Peter playing his pan flute sitting upon a mushroom patch. Deckled pages near fine; small vintage inscription at blank endp. Bind good; hinges intact. Includes six color plates and fifteen more in b&w; all by Arthur Rackham.

A near fine example in very good jacket. In Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, J.M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as an infant, living a wild and secret life with birds and fairies in the middle of London. Later Barrie let this remarkable child grow a little older and he became the boy-hero of Neverland, making his first appearance with Wendy, Captain Hook, and the Lost Boys. The Peter Pan stories were Barrie's only works for children but, as their persistent popularity shows, their themes of imaginative escape continue to charm even those who long ago left Neverland. Mary Clarissa "May" Byron (1861-1936) was an author in her own right, but was best known for her abridgements of J.M. Barrie's works for children. 123 pages. Insured post.
