Introduzione di: Silvio Perrella e Massimo Bignardi ALFREDO GUIDA 2004 269 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PARI AL NUOVO "Nel lontano 1954 un gruppo di amici della Guida (Bernari, Compagnone, Incoronato, Pomilio, Prisco, Rea e Viviani) decise di voler augurare il Natale in modo diverso. Partendo da 'Natale con i tuoi e Pasqua con chi vuoi'. Scrissero il loro Natale e l'editore Guida trasformò quei racconti in una pubblicazione destinata solo agli amici. Dopo 50 anni, altri amici hanno voluto raccontarci il loro Natale." (Mario Guida). Introduzione di Silvio Perrella e Massimo Bignardi.

With the publisher's 4pp catalogue (dated February 1816) at end. THIS COPY WAS BOUND BY ZAEHNSDORF IN THE LATTER HALF OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY FOR CHICAGO PUBLISHER AND WHOLESALER A.C. McCLURG; the binding is signed on front free endpaper verso. It was possibly compiled on behalf of a dedicated collector, for the plates and portraits are numerous and relevant. The frontispiece ('Leila', engraved by Mote after Corbaux) and 11 plates relate to the first work; the remaining 7 plates to the second. Of particular interest are the fine portraits of John Hobhouse (to whom the work is dedicated) by Hopwood after Wivell, and John Sobieski (engraved by Thomson from a picture in the Louvre).
