The illustrations are drawn by Fritz Kredel and hand-colored through stencils in Walter Fischer's studio in New York. The edition, designed by George Salter, has a page size of 6 x 9.5 inches and spans 356 pages. The text is set in the 12-point size of Monotype Walbaum with generous leading, marking the first use of this type in America.

The binding consists of blue hand-decorated paper over boards, with the decoration applied by Ingeborg Borjeson of Sweden. The backstrip is made of the finest quality smooth green calfskin, featuring a gold-stamped label.
