Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. London, British Museum, 1893 to 1925 (all first editions). Small quarto, four volumes in five (full details below); original dark green cloth lettered in gilt on the spines; minimal signs of age and use, but essentially in excellent condition throughout. Volume I, Part I: Prehistoric Aegean Pottery, by E.J. Forsdyke (1925; xliv, 228 pages with numerous illustrations plus 16 plates). Volume I, Part II: Cypriote, Italian, and Etruscan Pottery, by H.B. Walters (1912; xxxii, 276 pages with numerous illustrations plus 34 plates). Volume II: Black-figured Vases, by H.B. Walters (1893; [iv], 314 pages with '40 illustrations in text' plus 7 plates). Volume III: Vases of the Finest Period, by Cecil H. Smith (1896; vi, 426 pages with '28 illustrations in text' plus 28 plates). Volume IV: Vases of the Latest Period, by H.B. Walters (1896; [vi], 276 pages with '30 illustrations in text' plus 16 plates). The out-of-sequence dates of publication of the two parts of the first volume are explained in the respective prefaces. The one in Part II (1912) notes that 'When the present Catalogue . was planned, in 1891, Volume I was assigned to the vases then exhibited in the First Vase Room, which are for the most part of an early date, and represent the beginnings of Greek Vase-painting in many places and styles. The subsequent growth of the collection, especially in the sections dealing with Crete and Cyprus, has made it necessary to divide the volume into two parts, the second of which is the first to be ready for issue'. The preface in Part I (1925) adds that 'The lapse of time consequent on the interruption of the War and the further growth of the collection have caused an additional sub-division. The Second Part of Vol. I is devoted to the special groups of Cypriote, Early Italian and Etruscan Vases. The Third Part, when it appears, will deal with the Geometric, Early Corinthian and Ionian wares, intermediate between the prehistoric pottery of Part I, and the black figure vases which are the subject of Vol. II'. This Part III appears not to have been published. [5 items]. …
