Author: CRANE, WALTER
Title: Of the Decorative Illustration of Books Old and New
Description: London & New York, George Bell & Sons. 1896, First Edition. Limited Edition, 155mm x 240mm tall (6.25" x 9.25" approx.). Pp xii, 336 with illustrations throughout. Edited by Gleeson White as part of the Ex-Libris Series and printed at the Chiswick Press on "Tall Japanese Vellum" in a Limited Edition of 130 copies only, of which this is No. 83. Strangely, the pages of this volume are of two differing heights intermingled but with no loss of text. Apart from this apparent anomaly and some light age-darkening of the cover edges, the book is almost fine, in the original plain white thin card covers with art-parchment dust-wrapper/black-printed titles. Very Good.
