A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being a Ghost Story of Yule-Tide.

Anbieter: Peter Harrington. ABA/ ILAB., London, Vereinigtes Königreich

Bewertung:
Second Roycroft edition, using the sheets from their first edition of 1902, which are an attractive example of their presswork. Upon travelling to England in 1892 and meeting William Morris, Elbert Hubbard became enamoured of the arts and crafts movement and the productions of the Kelmscott Press. On his return to America, he started the Roycroft Press. His work became well-known and collected a community of craftspeople in Aurora. These were skilled metalsmiths, leathersmiths, and bookbinders, and attracted the patronage of Henry Ford, Theodore Roosevelt, and Queen Victoria. McKenna 293. Octavo. Original green reversed calf, green label to front cover lettered and decorated in gilt, yapp edges, top edge gilt, green watered silk doublures, fore and bottom edges uncut, yellow ribbon bookmarker. With glassine spider-web pattern dust jacket, housed in a black box decorated in silver and gilt with paper label. Portrait frontispiece with captioned tissue guard, decorative head- and tailpieces by Samuel Warner, title page printed in red and black within a broad typographic border, contents printed in red and black. Two pheasant feathers loosely inserted. Bookmarker split, detached half loosely inserted, contents clean, a couple of gatherings unopened; jacket edges chipped, unclipped; box edges rubbed, loss to label, short split: a fine copy in very good jacket and box.

First Roycroft Press edition, signed limited issue, number 76 of 100 copies and signed by Elbert Hubbard, founder of the Roycroft artisan community (or by one of the Roycrofters whom he had trained to imitate his signature). The limited edition was printed on Japanese vellum, and a standard edition was released simultaneously on paper. Upon travelling to England in 1892 and meeting William Morris, Hubbard became enamoured of the arts and crafts movement and the productions of the Kelmscott Press. On his return to America, he started the Roycroft Press. His work became well-known and collected a community of craftspeople in Aurora. These were skilled metalsmiths, leathersmiths, and bookbinders, and attracted the patronage of Henry Ford, Theodore Roosevelt and Queen Victoria. McKenna 75. Octavo. Original brown half morocco, spine lettered and decorated in gilt, marbled sides and endpapers, top edge gilt. Portrait frontispiece of Dickens (with tissue guard), title page printed in red & black within a broad typographic border, decorative head- and tailpieces by Samuel Warner. Patch of skinning to front fore-corner. A near-fine copy.
