Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. 8vo. Pp. 449. Bound in brown cloth with lettering stamped in orange. Pages crisp, cover lightly stained and spine lettering faded. Front hinge starting, with a small price-tag shadow on FFEP. Inscribed by Herrick on the front free endpaper to reviewer and columnist Philip Littell, dated… Oct[?] 18th 1924. Herrick was lumped in with the muckrakers, but managed to avoid their high-pitched moral tone, conveying instead a subtle, balanced view that managed, still, to underscore the injustices of his era. Herrick's association with New Republic critic LIttell began when they attended Harvard, both graduating 1890. Books is now housed in a clear, removable archival sleeve.

Condition: Good. - American novelist Robert Herrick's autograph penned on 4-1/2 inch high by 5 inch wide creamy white paper. Signed "Robert Herrick / Cuernavaca, Mexico, / 26 Feb. 1933". Folded for mailing, the paper is mounted from the verso onto gray stock from an autograph album. Good. The American novelist Robert Welch Herri…ck (1863-1938) was part of a newly emerging generation of American realists who addressed the turbulence and turmoil of industrialized society. Praised by William James, Herrick's work differed from Upton Sinclair's muckraking style to achieve its power from the perspective of melancholic fatalism. Appointed Secretary to the United States Virgin Islands in 1935, he found himself in the position of acting-Governor of the Islands when a political scandal forced Governor Paul Martin Pearson and his Lieutenant Governor to appear before the Senate. Pearson was forced to resign and, as his successor Lieutenant Governor Lawrence William Cramer was forced to remain in Washington until hearings were concluded, Herrick found himself presiding over the current legislative sessions.

Condition: Very Good+. Limited Edition. London: The Golden Cockerel Press, 1955. One of the 445 copies bound in quarter cream parchment with blue cloth boards. Title and device in gold on the spine. Illustrated with two watercolour paintings and 40 crayon drawings. Though not called for, this copy has been signed by Flint on the… colophon. Additionally, Sir William has inscribed the copy for his sister Charlotte : "My dearest Lottie's copy of my Herrick, from Willie, April 1955". Flint's reference to "my" Herrick indicates how personal a venture this book was for him. As press proprietor Christopher Sanford explains in Cock-a-Hoop: "This was a book that I printed for the artist at his request and expense. Indeed the type was already set when he asked me to make it a Cockerel, and all the subsequent details of its production were exactly to his specifications. The illustrations were no commission for Sir William but as he maintained a long-sustained labour of love, a painter's tribute to a great poet." Spine a little discolored, boards lightly spotted, very slight bowing and some foxing to the page edges, still very good or better in a similar slip case, a couple of small snags, some rubbing and browning. A nice Association copy. Flint, William Russell (illustrator).

Contact seller5-star sellerLimited edition. 127. [1]. 11" x 7.5" LIKE PRINTING IN A PREVIOUS AGE During his final year as the president of Britain's Royal Society of Painters in Watercolours, William Russell Flint contacted president of The Golden Cockerel Press, Christopher Sandford, to produce his illustrated edition of Robert Herrick's poems. Full of l…ush, sensual crayon drawings to match Herrick's risqué poems, printing Flint's project returned Sandford to the "nostalgic thrill of printing, as it were, in a previous age!" This collection features Herrick's most beloved poems, including "To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time." This edition is limited to 550 numbered copies, of which numbers 1-105 are bound in sheepskin and accompanied by eight extra loose prints, of which this is 47. This copy is signed by the Flint on the limitation page. [Cock-a-Hoop 199].

Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Second edition. This is a lovely presentation copy of the second edition of this Christmas anthology, edited by Robert Frost's eldest daughter, featuring several noteworthy signatures, inscriptions, and presentations. This copy offers a compelling and ostensibly unique convocation of associations - including the poet…Robert Frost, his daughter Lesley Frost, (in)famous Frost collector Earl J. Bernheimer, and newspaper columnist and syndicator George Matthew Adams. A two-page facsimile manuscript of Robert Frost's poem "Good Relief" fills two pages preceding the title page. Below his facsimile signature, in six lines in black ink, Frost signed and wrote "Robert Frost - | second | signature | for | Earl J. Bernheimer | April 5 1936". The Editor, Leslie Frost, signed "Lesley Frost" below her printed name on the title page. She further signed and inscribed the front free endpaper recto in five lines (three at the upper center, two at the lower left): "For | George Matthew Adams | from | Lesley Frost | N.Y.C. | June 1951". Already unique by inscriptions and association, this copy is also noteworthy for condition, approaching fine in a very good plus dust jacket. It is an attractive little book, bound in blue cloth with elaborate gilt print and illustration on the spine, the contents bound with red and yellow head and tail bands and yellow-stained top edges. The dust jacket is striking, printed in green, red, and black on a silver background, the holly leaves and banners design of the binding spine repeated in color on both the jacket spine and front face edges, with further illustrations on both faces. This copy's blue cloth binding is square, clean, bright, tight, and sharp-cornered, with only trivial hints of shelf wear to extremities. The contents are clean and bright, with no spotting, no soiling, no appreciable toning, and retaining a crisp feel. The dust jacket is bright, unclipped, and nearly complete, with only fractional loss at the spine head, flap fold corners, and the bottom edge of the front face. Light soiling to the rear face and minor scuffs, primarily to the extremities, joints, and flap folds, do not significantly mar the book's excellent presentation. The book is housed in a marbled-paper-lined black cloth chemise nested within a black cloth slipcase with three, gilt-printed, dark red leather spine labels. The slipcase is intact, though worn with some loss to the perimeter of the labels. The circa 1929 facsimile manuscript of Frost's poem "Good Relief" herein is the first published appearance of this poem, which was never included by Robert Frost in one of his collections. "The poem was begun in Beaconsfield, England, in 1912." It was first printed in the first, 1929 edition of Come Christmas, and printed again here in the 1935 second edition.The recipient for whom Frost inscribed this copy was one of the twentieth century's first significant Frost collectors. A wealthy, Beverly Hills bibliophile, Earl J. Bernheimer began collecting Frost's books and manuscripts in 1936 - the same year Frost inscribed this copy of Come Christmas to him. Capitalizing on Frost's financial anxieties, Bernheimer eventually acquired from Frost a magnificent trove of Frostiana, with Frost entertaining the hope and understanding that "Bernheimer would one day donate everything to a single university library." Instead, owing in part to a rancorous and expensive divorce and to Frost's manifest resentment Bernheimer sold off his collection in a famous 1950 New York auction.The editor, Lesley Frost Ballantine or Lesley Frost as she always liked to be known (1899-1983) was the second child of Robert and Elinor Frost. She spent her early childhood on the Derry, New Hampshire farm that informed her father's developing poetic voice and where he drafted many of his early poems. It was during her first marriage and after the birth of her first daughter, Elinor (named after her mother and to whom this book is dedicated) that Leslie edited this collection of "C.

In a unique binding and inscribed and signed by Abbey, "For Mrs. Alma Tadema - with the sincere regards of Edwin A. Abbey, March 1889." The sweet little bust portrait of her on the cover shows her in a flowered hat and double strand of pearls and measures 2 1/4 square… inches, slightly smudged in a few areas of border. Laura Epps, second and much beloved wife of the Victorian painter, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, was a fine painter in her own right and was often used as a model for her husband's work, The Women of Amphissa (1887) among them. The couple were close with Abbey, one of the key figures of the "golden age" of American illustration, and he inscribed this to her the year after publication. Specially bound by Abbey in vellum with hand lettering in red and black, and with a small initialed portrait drawing of Laura Epps (Alma-Tadema) to whom the work is inscribed.
