THE COLOUR OF LIFE
Author: Meynell, Alice
Publisher: London: John Lane [Bodley Head] Chicago: Way and Williams Chicago Illinois, USA 1896
Coarse-textured light brown cloth hardcover with gilt stamped spine titles, deckled edges. 101 pages plus colophon, plus 2+2 [reviews of previous books by the author] plus 16 [full page illustration of John Lane's Bodley Head shop, plus book ads]. A collection of essays on nature, art, and the status of women. This is a handsome and interesting volume, with both the English and American publishers indicated on the title page. In addition, the colophon indicates printing by W.H. White and Co., Ltd, Edinburgh Riverside Press. Affixed (upside down) to the rear paste-down is a label for the Revere Memorial Library, Isle Au Haut, Maine - apparently a free lending library with hours on Wednesday evenings and Sunday afternoons. (There are no library stamps, checkout slips, or anything else by way of library marks.) Overall the book is remarkably clean, gilt bright and cover clean and unstained except for a couple of subtle marks on rear cover. Lower corners rubbed, very light rubbing on spine edges and ends. The endpaper pastedowns are speckled from glue tranfer, which has offset to the free endpapers, and the internal paper has toned around the edges in a mellow manner. All in all a pleasing little book in the hand, and the prose ain't bad either. LIT NF 3231 First US Edition No Dust Jacket (as issued) Hard Cover Good Plus Condition 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall Literature Non-Fiction
Price: US$35.00. Quantity available: 1.
