Title: Yvette in the U.S. A. With Titania's Palace: A True Fairytale
Description: London, Nisbet & Co. Ltd, n.y. Hardcover. 8vo. Green cloth with gilt spine lettering and "Titania's Palace" crest. xvi, 208pp. Frontispiece, illustrations. Near fine. Tight, quite attractive indeterminate edition (as apparently are all), circa 1930, of this bizarrity: Wilkinson (1869-1940) was a high level British army officer and officer of arms, all-around he-man and -- designer of dollhouses! One of his two famous dollhouses was "Titania's Palace," and this odd narrative combines an American travelogue with description of the dollhouses many ornate rooms. He actually produced four other travel-centered Titania titles. .
