About This Item
(New York): Dodge, 1918. An octavo, measuring 6" by 8", with a pictorial cover by Maxfield Parrish.Fifty-two quotes to live by, one for each week of the year of 1919, surrounded by Art Nouveau borders printed in black and red. The pages are held together at the top with a green silk ribbon. The Parrish illustration, "Jason and the Talking Oak" was done for Nathaniel Hawthorne's Wonder Book in 1908. There are the usual creases along the top edge and corners, as well as a tiny hairline tear beneath one of the binding holes..else this is a fine, bright copy without any soil or marks. Contained in the original pictorial box, printed in green and red.."I Send To You This Greeting With A Message of Cheer and Friendship For Each Week of the Coming Year." The box has some tears at the edges and margins of the top but is complete and perfectly sound. A nice item for the collector of either Maxfield Parrish or Arts and Crafts design. (Coy 35 & 37).
