About This Item
Richmond: Printed and Published by Leonard & Virginia Woolf at The Hogarth Press, 1922. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition, first printing and one of only 1,200 copies originally published by Virginia and her husband Leonard on their Hogarth Press. An unusually nice copy, bound in publisher's goldenrod cloth with title label to spine, lacking the scarce dust jacket. Near Fine with light stain to spine and a few small spots to the front cover, two roughly opened leaves (with loss only to blank margins) very skillfully mended with archival tissue, else virtually pristine. A difficult book to find in such nice condition.
