Grimms' Fairy Tales Mrs. Edgar Lucas translator
I am working on a Rackham-illustrated version of selected Grimm's Fairy Tales. The volume of 60 stories was first printed in 1909. These were translated by Mrs. Edgar Lucas. Then a volume titled "Little Brother & Little Sister and other tales" with additional 40 stories was published 1917, but for this one they used Helen Hunt's translations.

I have googled unsuccessfully for Lucas translations of stories in addition to the 60 in that first Rackham volume. It may be that she was commissioned specifically to do this book. I found " Household and Fairy Tales" with multiple translators, but seem to be the same stories as the Rackham edition.

Does anyone know if there are any other Lucas-translated stories out there somewhere?
