From the colophon on page 68: "This paper, first spoken as a lecture at the New Gallery, for the Arts & Crafts Exhibition Society, in the year 1889, was first printed by the Kelmscott Press during the Arts and Crafts Exhibition at the New Gallery, Regent Street, London, 1893. Sold by William Morris, Kelmscott Press, Upper Mall, Hammersmith." [LeMire 176; Peterson A18; Sparling 18; Forman 146]. This copy is one from the latter printing with the typos corrected on pages 41 and 45 ( "gilds" to "guilds" in red, and "Van Eyk" corrected to "Van Eyck," respectively. There were three issues of 500 each, for a total run of 1,500. The first was printed in public demonstrations during the 1893 Arts and Crafts Exhibition held in the New Gallery and was one of the most popular attractions at the exposition. Some wear and fading to covers, with a faint smudge on the front cover. Internally very clean with no foxing. Front free endpaper corner cut (for unknown reason), otherwise a good copy.
