this is 1907. I found myself wondering if the designs here had an influence on Disney's Peter Pan, some of them, particularly Peter and Hook are almost exactly like the Disney version.
Thanks Lyons.

Wonderful, thank you, Lyons. That reminds me, I could watch my favorite film adaptation of 'Peter Pan' again:

Nice, but it needs an inside front cover to make the pages display correctly in a double-page layout. ... Regarding similarities to the Disney adaptation, this book would have been published only 3 years after the proper debut of Pan (Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, a 1904 stage play). From what I can tell, the illustrations from the earliest period usually depict him as capless and clad in a suit of leaves, so this version (authorized or not) was quite different and very likely an influence on the Disney artists.
