Some darkening to the edges of the boards and a stain to the bottom of the spine. Overall a very good copy. ------ Contains the Poem "If". Kipling's most enduring work of verse. A poll taken by the BBC in the UK in 2005 voted it as Britain's favourite Poem polling twice as many votes as the number 2 choice Lord Tennyson's The Lady of Shallot. Originally written in 1895 IF was inspired by the actions of Dr. Leander Starr Jameson a British Officer whose forces were defeated by the Boers in 1895 but who was portrayed as a victorious hero by the British press the poem is a powerful masterclass in maintaining the British stiff upper lip. -- Richards A242.</p> Macmillan and Co, Ltd.

1909144356New York: B. W. Dodge & Company 1909. First edition first issue with gilt lettering an unauthorized piracy by Dodge and Company reprinting Kipling's contributions from various Indian newspapers. The first issue can be distinguished by the gold lettering on the spine and front cover; in response to the piracy Kipling instructed his regular American publisher Doubleday to produce a rival publication to undercut the piracy. To compete with the new authorized version Dodge & Company bound remaining sheets of the book in a binding using a cheaper red lettering rather than gilt. Richards notes that the publisher apparently retained many unsold copies for the number of surviving fine dust jackets implies that a cache of copies was issued many decades later. Octavo. Original blue cloth spine and front cover lettered in gilt. With dust jacket. A fine copy in near-fine jacket with only very light shelfwear. Richards A227; Stewart 324. hardcover

1904587851London: Charles Sheard & Co 1904. Softcover. Very Good. First edition. Folio. Two nested bifolia making eight pages. Composer's name stamp and "file copy" stamp on the front cover outer bifolium separating a bit at both ends of the fold light edgewear and toning a very good and complete copy. For voice and piano. Plate imprint "Lichenberg. E." The following note is printed above the music "The blossoms of the Australian Wattle Tree a species of Acacia emit a remarkably fragrant perfume more particularly after rain: the sudden recognition of this scent on an occasion during the Transvaal campaign awakens thoughts of 'Home sweet home' in the breast of an Australian Trooper." Gerard F. Cobb is primarily remembered for his musical settings to Kipling's words this perhaps being his last such composition as he passed away in March of the year it was published. This song is unrecorded by OCLC and appears equally scarce in the trade; in fact the only references we can find to the piece online are are The Kipling Society citing a record of it in Rudyard Kipling A Bibliographical Catalogue by James McGregor Stewart and a 2005 recording released by ABC Records-Australia on an album titled When the Empire Calls. A rare and intriguing piece. Charles Sheard & Co unknown

1919004965England 1919. Cloth. Near Fine. Lovely meticulously rendered vignette illustrations framing the key letter on each page and on a few pages two vignettes. Oblong 9 by 13 cm. 28 pp. The album opens to a particularly nice pen and ink drawing of a schooner framed with highly decorative foliate baroque ornamentation. The first poem is Kipling's "If" each letter device accompanied by a painting of a different type of sail boat or ship. Ship motives are used again in "Love at Sea" by Swinburne. Another Kipling poem "The Explanation" is enlivened with paintings of colorful expressive fish. In our judgment these are the most charismatic of the illustrations. Other poems include Swinburne's "Rondel" "Before Sunset" "Song" and "Child's Song"; and some verses by Sappho. Other illustrative motives take in dragons flowers and floral daipers butterflies and coasts. The poems are rendered in a neat calligraphic hand and it is very easy to imagine this manuscript as something that might have been published as a gift book. unknown
