Het vlas. (Translated from the Danish by Marie Nijland-van der Meer de Walcheren. Handwriting and color drawings designed by Bart van der Leck). Amsterdam, De Spieghel, (1941). Original folding wrappers. 10 (= 24) p. Printed at De IJsel in Deventer in 550 numbered copies, this being copy #44. 1st edition. Cover slightly browned and with some inevitable creasing of the edges. Very good copy. One of the highlights of Dutch twentieth-century book design. This edition was, from the illustrations, cover, and text to the last exclamation mark, hand-drawn by Bart van der Leck in his typical angular, geometric style (the style of De Stijl). Text and image are interspersed with lines and areas in the primary colours blue, yellow, and red. 'The Flax' ('Hørren' in Danish) is an early tale by Andersen (1849)-an extraordinary message of hope and fulfillment in adverse times.
