Description:
5 volumes. Illustrated with copper-engraved title-pages, head and tailpieces by Stephen Gooden. 31x20 cm (12¼x8"), original gilt decorated boards, spines stamped in gilt; top and bottom edges cut, fore-edges deckled. One of 1000 copies printed on Japon vellum by Frederick Hall at the Oxford University Press (Apocrypha one of 1250).
One of the great early books of the Press, and Stephen Gooden's second book commission, after the Nonesuch Anacreon of 1923. Well preserved despite the notoriously fragile boards.
Condition
Boards toned and slightly worn; Apocrypha front hinge cracked at first page, occasional marginal soiling, pages largely clean throughout; very good.
