Hi all! Does anyone know the decade that the Heidi story is supposed
to be
set in?
Published in 1880 with the first edition in English published in 1884,
the visual images we've come to associate with Heidi seem mostly to be
based on the illustrations done a bit later by Alice Carsey in 1916

and by Jessie Wilcox Smith in 1922.

There was also a very popular edition done in the 30s, and the Shirley
Temple movie in 1937.
