Description: The Courtesy of Country Life, 1922. 1st edition. Cahier / tied in cord, 26,5cmx18cm, Good copy /Cover slightly worn, Souvenir of the 500th anniversery of the settlement of the honourable society of Lincoln's Inn in its present abode. 9 tipped in illustrations. The Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn is one of four Inns of Court in London to which barristers of England and Wales belong and where they are called to the Bar. The other three are Middle Temple, Inner Temple and Gray's Inn. It is believed to be named after Henry de Lacy, 3rd Earl of Lincoln. As with the other Inns of Court, the precise date of founding of Lincoln's Inn is unknown. The Inn can claim the oldest records - its 'black books' documenting the minutes of the governing Council go back to 1422, and the earliest entries show that the Inn was at that point an organised and disciplined body. 20) pag.
