About this Item

Limited edition of 250 copies. Patterned paper covered boards, 26 cm, 25 pp, ills. From an advertisement for the book: "In 1970 the Rampant Lions Press published John Schroder's Catalogue of his extensive collection of material associated with Rupert Brooke, Edward Marsh and Christopher Hassall. This has been out of print for some years. Now John Schroder, who died while his new book was going through the press, has told the story of the collection, how his interest in Brooke was ignited and fuelled, and how it developed. It is full of insights into how to cajole material out of reluctant vendors, and presents a nostalgic picture of a kind of collecting by enthusiastic individuals which is becoming ever rarer.". Set in Monotype Baskerville and printed on Zerkall laid paper, with four pages of reproductions of manuscript material. Name on front free endpaper, otherwise Fine in mylar dustwrapper.
