About this Item

Collectible Fine First Cornish Lodenek Press Hardcover Edition. By the founder of the great Cornish Lodenek Press Donald R. Rawe. Clean 32 pp, B/W photos and illustrations and text. Musical notation included. Otiginal Hardcover binding. NOT a library copy. No dust jacket on this Decorative Cloth edition. A little soiling on the cover that might clean off. Light foxing within. NO writing in text. Amazing Celtic tradition going back to perhaps Neolithic traditions. "The Obby Oss" parade has similarities in my mind's eye to the Chinese Dragon parades one sees in New York Chinse Town. But you can feel the antiquity in the Cornish faces transcending time. Original First Lodenek Edition Tight binding. Limited printing for sure. See our Three Geese in Flight Celtic Book Scans.
