Item description from seller

Octavo, original decorated cloth boards, printed paper title label on spine panel. 1,600 copies printed on fine Arches paper by Robert MacLehose and Co. Ltd., with coloured illustrations by Jacquier hand-stencilled at the Curwen Press. Humbert Wolfe's copy; Signed by him on the front free endpaper, dated April 3, 1929. This copy is unnumbered and stamped on the colophon leaf "This Book Is Out Of Series - For Review" (and was indeed most likely given by Frances Meynell to Wolfe for Review). Cloth a bit soiled, spine label dull; a very good clean copy. Originally published in 1852, GRAZIELLA tells of a young French man who falls for a fisherman's granddaughter - the eponymous Graziella - during a trip to Naples, Italy. A very popular book, here issued in a fine press edition, our copy with a nice association.
