First facsimile edition, signed by the editor at the foot of his introduction to Flecker. The preface stated that 52 copies from a total edition of 500 were numbered and signed. This copy is not numbered, but does bear Johnston's signature. These are reproductions of the Corvinus Press's limited issues of Lawrence's diary and of his critical essay about Flecker. During 1911, Lawrence was employed on an Archaeological dig in Northern Syria, and this is a facsimile of his account of this period. The diary was published by the Corvinus Press in 1937. His essay on Flecker was published in an edition of only 30 copies in 1937. "The poet James Elroy Flecker [1884-1915] had been a friend of Lawrence's in Beirut before the war. None of the appearances of this essay have been in trade editions" (O'Brien: A194a, A198b.) Housed in original cream card slipcase. Thirteen plates, illustrations in text in Diary, limitation in red in Flecker. A very nice, clean copy. A couple of light marks to the slipcase. 30cm x 20.5cm. .
