Under the Window: Pictures & Rhymes for Children (written and illustrated by Kate Greenaway; her first book both written and illustrated by herself)

There is NO signed/numbered deluxe or large-paper limited issue of this title — unlike the later Edwardian gift-book illustrators (Rackham, Dulac), Greenaway's Routledge/Evans toy books were mass-market colour gift books issued in a single trade form. The prized true first is therefore the ordinary trade first edition, FIRST ISSUE (Schuster & Engen 201.1a), distinguished by the three points above (End of Contents at foot of p.14; full-page illustrations on pp. 21/35/63; "Edmund Evans" on the title page WITHOUT flanking ornaments); the second issue (201.1b) adds those ornaments plus the boy figure on the title verso. Dating note: the title page is undated, so cataloguers bracket it — the British Library, Bauman, Pazzo and Wikipedia give [1879] (published October 1879), while Christie's, Bonhams and Sotherans frequently catalogue it [1878]; the likeliest reason for the [1878] tag is that Evans engraved the blocks in 1878 ahead of the Christmas 1879 release, but both dates refer to the same first edition. First American edition was issued by George Routledge & Sons' New York house (416 Broome Street), circa 1880 (announced in Publishers' Weekly, 1880) — later than, and derived from, the London printing; the London Routledge/Evans edition is the true first.
