The subsequent growth of the collection especially in the sections dealing with Crete and Cyprus has made it necessary to divide the volume into two parts the second of which is the first to be ready for issue'. <p>The preface in Part I 1925 adds that 'The lapse of time consequent on the interruption of the War and the further growth of the collection have caused an additional sub-division. The Second Part of Vol. I is devoted to the special groups of Cypriote Early Italian and Etruscan Vases.

18622029721862-1867 1862. VG. A remarkable collection of touching personal letters written by Joseph Grego aged 19–24 to his younger brother Hubert Charles Grego aged 11–16 during his school years—believed to be at Cumberland House a boys' boarding school run by James Mallinson. The volume includes 300 charming illustrations / cartoons integrated throughout the text along with four tipped in.

The binding has a little rubbing to the spine tips corners and joints. Internally clean with just a little browning and curling to the edges of some letters. The writer Joseph Grego began his career at Lloyds before moving into the world of art as a collector journalist and respected authority on Gillray Rowlandson Morland and Cruikshank. Amongst his publications he was instrumental in the 1873 edition of James Gillray's Works and edited Rowlandson the Caricaturist 2 vols. 1880. Although he gathered extensive material for a biography of Morland it remained unfinished.A skilled draughtsman Grego designed theatrical costumes etched the work of others and developed a method of reproducing eighteenth century colour prints so accurate they were often mistaken for originals. He served as a director of Carl Hentschel Ltd. and Kegan Paul & Co. and was associated with the Graphic Company. In 1897 he contributed to the Victorian Era Exhibition at Earl's Court where his Dickens collection was described as "the fullest collection of Dickensiana ever gathered into one focus." His vast holdings were dispersed after his death via sales at Christie's and Puttick and Simpson's. Included with the book are letters from 1978-79 between Mrs Bruce-Johnston and the Folio Society regarding her submission of the volume for potential publication. All in all a fabulous set of family letters elevated by some excellent often humorous illustrations. Hubert Grego died in 1889 and Joseph in 1908 both unmarried. Their sister Louisa "Louie" from 1901 onward inherited Joseph's estate. She married George Bruce Johnston in 1902 and their son Roy Grego Bruce Johnston was born in 1905. Roy married Margaret Evelyn Palmer "Evelyn" in 1929. Included with the book are letters from 1978–79 between Mrs. Bruce Johnston and the Folio Society regarding her submission of the volume for potential publication.
