Illustration: Gustaf Tenggren's Grimm's Fairy Tales

This post is just the tip of the iceberg... see The Top Ten Reasons To Support The A-HAA for more jaw dropping images from classic illustrated books.

This is a real treat... an extremely rare 1923 edition of Grimm's Fairy Tales illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren. If you've been following the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive Blog for a while, you'll remember our previous postings: Tenggren's Tell It Again Book Part One and Part Two, The Little Trapper, Small Fry and the Winged Horse, and Heidi, Wonderbook and Juan and Juanita.
