8vo, pp. 326; publisher's dark blue cloth, red, black and white dust-jacket with a design by Lewis; a very good copy in a good jacket, spine slightly sunned, a few small tears to edges; bookplate of Lewis's friend the BBC broadcaster D. G. Bridson, with some pencil marks by him in the margin.Reprint of the second edition of Lewis's 'first political book', a collection of essays engaging with Shakespeare and Machiavelli first published in 1927 and then reissued by Methuen in 1951; inscribed in a very shaky hand 'To Geoffrey Bridson from Wyndham / Oct 1956'. 'The Lion and the Fox is shot through with original thinking on every subject that it takes up The tone of the book is distinctly liberal, and its attitude towards the concept of despotic rule is one of suspicion and antipathy' (Bridson, The Filibuster). Laid in loose is a 1-leaf typescript of two sections from pp. 83-4 and 89-90 of 'The Foxes' Case' by Lewis, published in The Calendar of Modern Letters 2:8 (October 1925), with a few corrections in pen and the note 'original copy checked with DGB' at the foot. The article included several passages subsequently incorporated into The Lion and the Fox. See Bridson, 'That Notorious Machiavel', The Filibuster, pp. 1-18.

First Edition
8vo, pp.[6], 566, with illustrations by Ayrton; publisher's white cloth, printed in black and gilt, dustjacket in red, white and black to a design by Ayrton; a fine copy in a very good jacket; bookplate of Lewis's friend, the BBC broadcaster D.G.Bridson.First edition, inscribed 'To Geoffrey Bridson you who did so much to make the completion of this book possible, and who was chiefly responsible for its translation into Radio drama I salute you./ Wyndham Lewis'. After the broadcast of Bridson's production of The Childermass (1928) on 18 June 1951, the BBC commissioned Lewis to complete the trilogy 'on the condition that when they were finished similar broadcast dramatizations would precede book publication. As a result of this sponsorship largely the work of B.B.C.producer D.G.Bridson Lewis was able to write Monstre Gai and Malign Fiesta' (Morrow & Lafourcade). When the two novels had been completed, 'a set of the galley proofs was then made over to me, and I sketched out what had to be done. Briefly, this was a matter of writing additional scenes which would be necessary to bridge the gaps left by cutting such a lengthy work. The extra scenes were written by me along the lines that I had indicated, and the whole was trimmed down to the four and a half hours of air-time agreed upon' (Bridson, '"The Human Age" in Retrospect', in Meyers, ed.) '(T)he entire trilogy was broadcast on May 24, 26, and 28, 1955. T.S.Eliot, who had read much of the manuscripts of the novels as they were being written, and had made comments and suggestions to Lewis about the texts, discussed Monstre Gai and Malign Fiesta during the Third Programme on May 25, 1955' (Morrow & Lafourcade).Pound & Grover A41a; Morrow & Lafourcade A40.
