Description:
London: Gresham, (1910). Cream cloth octavo, 50 color plates, after paintings by E. W. Haslehurst, 63 pp. of text. This series provides an affectionate glimpse into the scenes and places that keep Britain close to the hearts of anyone that has been there, either in fact or hopeful intent. The decorative binding, although not attributed to Talwin Morris, was at least strongly influenced by him. The central ornamental device on the front cover consists of a shield with a stylized coral Tudor rose and sharply geometric dark green foliage. The rose is repeated on the spine.The endleaves again give testament to the influence of Talwin Morris and C. R. Mackintosh with Glasgow roses, arrow- shaped leaves, recatangles and linear borders. The lower cover has some soil and light wear. A very nice copy of a striking book.

Description:
Bunnell and Price, New York, 1852. Bound in the original blind stamped ribbed cloth with a pictorial representation of a lunar voyage on the cover. 12mo. FIRST EDITION. This volume is in two parts, pages 1-45 relate the history of how Richard Adams Locke, a reporter for the New York Sun, concocted a fantastic tale of the existence of moon inhabitants. This report was based on the astronomical discoveries of Sir John Herschel at the Cape of Good Hope. Owing to the distance and time for transatlantic travel it was several months before the hoax was discovered. The second part of this volume, pages 46-143 has a separate title page and reprints articles originally published in the newspaper. Locke's imagination ran wild, even to the point of identifying animals and a human-like creature with bat wings. Offset from articles to prelims., blank endleaf excised, scattered light foxing but overall a nice copy of a fragile work rarely found.
