Daniel [oeconomist.com] said...: Greiffenhagen was one of the illustrators of the “deluxe” edition of H. Rider Haggard's She, and did the illustrations for the the first editions of Ayesha and of She and Allan. His work on She was especially noteworthy; unfortunately, the inferior work for that same edition is often mis-attributed to Greiffenhagen.; December 15, 2011 at 9:40 AM

I'll need to do some scanning or dig-up wherever I stashed those scans that I've done, and right now I have some conflicting commitments, but I'd be glad to send the scans to you when I've done/found them.

(I have a long-run project that will use them, so you shouldn't feel obligated to use any.); December 16, 2011 at 6:07 AM
