Book Description

FIRST ANNING-BELL EDITION. Delux limited edition issue, one of just 125 numbered copies printed on Japanese vellum. 8vo. (8.8 x 5.6 inches). Fully illustrated with Frontis and title page, three double page section title pages, printed in red and black, plus twenty full page plates, and dozens of smaller illustrations in line throughout the text. Colour plate, printed in burgundy and green and reproducing the decorative vinyard design that was used on the binding of the trade edition, bound in before the Limitation leaf and half title. Page edges uncut with some gatherings unopened. Original publishers plain oatmeal coloured cloth binding with black and red lettering and dolphin, flower and bell publishers motif designed by Anning Bell stamped in black to the spine. Plain white endpapers. Presumably issued in a relatively plain binding with expectations that these special Japanese Vellum copies would be bound in fine leather bindings. A rare edition of this beautiful book and even more so in the original publishers binding.
