The publication date is 1934 (another edition was published in 1950), and this book is given a full treatment  in my Bibliography as item E1-147 at p. 660, and is mentioned in Livingston in her Supplement at p. 172, as well as the mention in Stewart.
 
Kredel was fairly well known, and is certainly in some reference books, but I don't know if he has ever had a separate bibliography himself.

Subject: Barrack-room Ballads etc Peter Pauper Press ill Kredel

I have acquired a copy of:
"Barrack-room Ballads & Departmental Ditties By Rudyard Kipling/
Decorated by Fritz Kredel/
The Peter Pauper press, Mount Vernon . New York"
contains 13 & 12 poems
78 pp, printed on a handmade ?yellowish  paper, decd  paper boards, 21.4  x 12.5 cm,
in red slipcase with label affixed as on frontisp.
It is undated.. Has 12 attractive coloured illusns.
Not in bibliographies; Stewart at p 625 lists the unauthorised :
"Barrack-Room Ballads and Departmental Ditties", Peter Pauper press, 1934, in brown cloth & different size to mine.
Kredel came to USA after 1936. The internet lists various  versions of the Ballads illustrated by Kredel but feware dated.

I have emailed the press for a dating but without reply. Does anyone know of a bibliography of this illustrator?
