Mackenzie's most desired work, his interpretation of the classic Middle Eastern folktale set in China, traditionally incorporated into European translations of the ARABIAN NIGHTS. The in-text illustrations are beautifully reproduced due to the high quality of the paper. This is a lavish illustrated version of ALADDIN in English, and one of the most sought from the Golden Age. Rare in this limited format.

Illustrated by Mackenzie with 12 magnificent tipped-in color plates with captioned tissue guards, decorative initials and text borders and a profusion of stunning black-and-white details on every page of text.
