St Andrews: Two Poems

Illustrations by Malcolm Patterson. 8vo. Pale grey paper over boards. (Ca. 50pp). 16 Illustrations. Very good. Faint binding edgewear, with spine and edges age toned, but internally tight and near fine. Tight and decent first edition of these back-to-back poems -- Kipling's "A Rector's Memory" and de le Mare's "A Memory -- published as a fundraiser for the University of St. Andrews' Student Welfare Scheme. The line drawings and etchings that follow illustrate various views of this ancient Scottish university. Small family crest bookplate on front pastedown (SCIO CUI CONFIDO" -- I know in whom I trust) designed by English illustrator and artist Fred Roe (1864-1937). Laid in is an interesting 8vo promotional handbill from A & C Black advertising this title and a second, smaller (24mo) handbill for a different Black title ("St. Andrews Treasury of Scottish Verse"). An interesting Kipling curiosity.
