Description:
Amsterdam: Chez Zacharie Chatelain, 1728. Complete in 5 parts (various paginations) with frontispiece and 242 half-page engravings by Henri Cause, many based on those of François Chauveau. There also are attractiveengraved tailpieces following many of the fables. The 5th part of the Fables is not included in many editions; so this more complete edition is quite desirable. Recently and sympathetically rebound in full leather with the original spine and front & rear panels laid down. Internally clean with only an occasional hint of foxing; small chips out of margins of 5 leaves, not affecting text or images. In all, a very nice example of this scarce book, an early, delightfully illustrated French-language presentation of La Fontaine's fables.. Early Printing. Hardcover. Collectible-Very Good. Illus. by Henri Cause. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. Book.

New York: Mitchell Kennerley, 1914. x, 93 pages. 12mo. First printing of the first edition of this play, that was Lawrence's fifth published book . Because this edition preceded the British edition, this is the true first edition. Both this play and an earlier short story, "Odour of Chrysanthemums," are transparently autobiographical and reflect Lawrence's attempts to mourn the death of his uncle . The book is in very good+ condition: clean and tight, with some rubbing of the color on edges of covers; a tiny rubbed spot on page 75 affects 2 letters in one word. The rare dustjacket, is, as expected, 4mm shorter than the book and has a printed "$1.25 net" price label covering the original $1.00 price on the spine. The jacket is in very good condition: lightly toned and has a reading crease along the spine (N in Lawrence and L in Holroyd on spine have tiny scrape where crease hits); very light soiling limited to the spine of the…

London: Printed by A. Godbid & J. Playford, and sold by S. Neale, 1680. (6), 1-32, 49-176, 193-219 pages; missing the frontispiece. The text is complete and in proper sequence without duplication. But the page numbering problems in all known copies are present: page numbers 33-48 and 178-192 are not used; numbering of pages 82-95 is not sequential; and page numbers 97-103, 204-205, 106-107, 208, 109, and 112 are duplicated. Attributed to L'Estrange by Donald Wing, the book chronicles the "Popish Plot", alleged treasonous acts of Jesuits against the rule of Charles II. This is a scarce title: ESTC locates only 26 copies in world libraries, and this is the only copy we can locate on the market at this time. Recently rebound in full brown morocco with tooling appropriate to the 17th century. Internally clean with lightly tanned, but still supple, pages that are age-worn at the corners. There is a 1/2" closed tear in the bottom margin of the title page.. First Edition.…
