An early reprint of the first edition, second issue with "Copyright, 1887, by The Century Co." printed at the center of copyright page and "The de Vinne Press Imprimatur" printed at the foot of the copyright page, "Forty-Fifth Thousand" printed on title page and p. (xii) showing ads for "The Brownies at Home" (1893) and "Another Brownie Book" (1890) - but lacking the next title in the series "The Brownies Around the World" (1894) - so this copy likely an 1893 printing. A very collectible copy of an important 19th century childrens book complete with it's original dust jacket. Ref. Blanck, p. 84 ; Tanselle, 87.8.
