Macmillan and Co. Ltd. London. 1910. FIRST EDITION. 8vo. (7.7 x 5.3 inches). Four full page mono plates by Frank Craig. Fine early twentieth century leather binding. Full burgundy calf, the spine with five raised bands, each with wavy line design in gilt. Compartments ruled and decorated in gilt. Light brown morocco title label, gilt. Double ruled gilt borders on boards. School arms stamped in gilt to the front board. Decorative line gilt design on board edges. Decorative blind stamped inner dentelles. Marbled endpapers. All edges marbled. School prize label, from Christ's Hospital School in London, dated 1913, on the front paste down endpaper. Aside from some abrasion to the very top and bottom of the spine and the hinges (but they are strong and firm) this is a very good copy in a fine quality leather binding. The binding is not signed but is certainly the work of a master bookbinder. ---- Contains the Poem "If".

New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons / The Knickerbocker Press, 1927. Half-Leather. Very Good/No Jacket. Corners a bit rubbed, boards faintly soiled, ink date and owner bookplate of Robert N. Cherry on front flyleaf. 1927 Half-Leather. iv, 325 pp. 8vo. No binder's ticket, but appears to be a contemporary custom rebinding: blue leather spine and corners over blue cloth, gilt titles and rules, top edge gilt, new end sheets. "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Memoirs. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin's death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written. Franklin's account of his life is divided into four parts, reflecting the different periods at which he wrote them.
