The Phynodderree, and other legends of the Isle of Man
The Phynodderree and Other Legends of the Isle of Man is a Victorian collection of Manx folk tales, illustrated by W. J. Watson and published in London by J. Dean and Son in 1882 for general readers of fairy stories. Its wood-engraved pictures show fairies, a hairy goblin, a giant spider, a skeleton and a sleeping traveller, drawn in loose, sketchy line that suggests folklore creatures a designer could adapt for dark fantasy or storybook motifs.
