Lilley B.5. *With an inked presentation inscription in mock 'antiquarian' style on the upper free endpaper from Powell to John Davies Knatchbull Lloyd: 'For the ingenious Mr. John Lloyd, ffelowe of ye Societie of Antiquaries, from his ffreide Anthy Powell. Trin. 9 Eliz. II'. John Lloyd, whose armorial bookplate is on the upper pastedown, was a public servant and antiquarian researcher. At Trinity College, Oxford, he founded the Hypocrites' Club. Members included fellow students Harold Acton, Robert Byron, Evelyn Waugh, and Anthony Powell. A brief annotation on the lower pastedown, and a note on a small slip loosely inserted in this copy (along with 2 newscutting portraits of Powell) are perhaps in Lloyd's hand. Most recently from the library of David Levine, Sydney, whose book label is on the upper free endpaper verso.
