Small, neat ownership inscription of one Dorothy Percival in ink to front free end-paper. Minor restoration to lower joint, head and tail spine, expertly executed and barely perceptible. A few light spots of foxing to edges but contents generally bright and fresh. A very good copy. The first edition with Hammond's pen-and-ink illustrations. Hammond was 'was the first identifiably female illustrator of Jane Austen's novels, illustrating three Austen titles for two publishers. (Loosey, 'Illustrated Austen'). A recent critic, writing on illustrated Austen editions argues that Hammond was ' the finest artist of this period [.] her decisive and characterized pen-and-ink drawings are neither whimsical nor over decorative' (Southam, 'Texts and Editions'). An attractive copy. Gilson E94. Loosey, Devoney, 'The Golden Age for Illustrated Austen: From Peacocks to Photoplays'; Southam, Brian 'Texts and Editions' in A Companion to Jane Austen, pp., 5160.
