Library buckram. Zustand: V.g. No Jacket. 1st edition. Rebound in red buckram with gilt title on spine, internally a very good unmarked copy. With a short introduction by Peter Cowell, Chief Librarian, summarising the generous gift of a fine library in the will of Hugh Frederick Hornby of Wavertree, along with the sizeable sum of £10,000 to "assist the authorities to provide a building in which to store the collection" - a job they did with aplomb. Whether Hornby would have approved of the use of this space for receptions and openings is an interesting question. His library comprised some 8,000 volumes, mostly chosen "to illustrate the history and progress of the graphic arts from early times to the present". It also contains a complete set of the works issued by the Kelmscott Press. There is also a range of fine bindings, though this catalogue does not cover prints, autographs and art bindings. (9), 648 pp. Weight: 1 Language: English.
