Note:
- First of 7 annual gift books created by Dulac in "association with the Leicester Galleries and Hodder & Stoughton; the gallery commissioned illustrations from Dulac which they sold in an annual exhibition, while publishing rights to the paintings were taken up by Hodder & Stoughton for reproduction in illustrated gift books, publishing one book a year." (1907 to 1913) --Wikipedia "Edmund Dulac" as of 2016-12-06
- John Clute, in the Encyclopedia of Fantasy entry on Edmund Dulac, identifies a longer series of Christmas gift books from Dulac and Hodder & Stoughton, without mention of Leicester Galleries.
- The U.S. Library of Congress catalogues Arabian Nights collections by Laurence Housman as dated 1907, 1923, 1932?, 1955; and numerous publications of single Arabian Nights stories apparently (children's picture books with Housman's text probably).
- HathiTrust Digital Library (hathitrust.org) features the 1st US ed, printed in Great Britain for Scribner's. Internet Archive (archive.org) and Wikisource (en.wikisource.org) feature a later undated collection of 9 stories attributed to Housman, without preface or other essay contents. Its first 6 stories match those in the 1907 collection, but the sequence differs. It contains few of the illustrations.
