1903ST17129-027Edinburgh: Printed by Turnbull and Spears for Otto Schulze & Co September 1903. No. 25 OF 40 COPIES printed on Japanese Vellum. 208 x 176 mm. 8 3/4 x 7". v 289 1 pp. 1 leaf colophon. <br/> MOST ATTRACTIVE DARK BROWN CRUSHED MOROCCO GILT BY OTTO SCHULZE & CO. stamp-signed on front turn-in covers with complex strapwork frame raised bands spine compartments with lobed centerpiece gilt lettering gilt-ruled turn-ins top edge gilt other edges untrimmed. With woodcut white-vine border on title page and on the first page of three poems large white-vine initial printed in red on title page numerous six-line white-vine initials throughout. Printed in red and black. Nearly invisible short scratch near head of front board a couple of corners gently bumped trivial internal imperfections but A VERY FINE COPY with virtually no signs of use inside or out.<br/> <br/> This collection of poems by the great Romantic rebel is a strictly limited deluxe production from Edinburgh publisher Otto Schulze clearly intended to capitalize on the allure of books produced by the great English private presses. Operating during the first 10 or 15 years of the 20th century Schulze usually had his books printed by George Robb or as here Turnbull and Spears with some copies then finely bound under his firm's name. Such bindings often were done for rather than by the publisher or bookseller whose name is stamp-signed on the volume but since our volume says that the binding is by--and not for--Schulze we can only assume that our publisher had an in-house binder. Whether in-house or outsourced bindings signed by Schulze are consistently attractive but are not common: since 1975 ABPC has listed six such morocco bindings two of them described as "elaborate" or "extra.".

1892ST18713London: Printed at the Ballantyne Press for Reeves & Turner 1892. Third Edition with the Notes of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. 188 x 122 mm. 7 3/8 x 4 3/4". Two volumes. Edited by H. Buxton Forman. <br/> PARTICULARLY FINE RED CRUSHED MOROCCO GILT AND ONLAID BY SANGORSKI & SUTCLIFFE stamp-signed on front turn-in covers framed by multiple plain and decorative rolls cornerpieces with the gilt torch of liberty extending obliquely from an onlaid green morocco heart bracketed by volutes front boards with central onlaid citron morocco medallion stamped with the poet's gilt monogram rear boards with onlaid citron morocco pansy surrounded by a gilt collar with the quote "Pansies let my flowers be" from "Remembrance"; raised bands spine compartments with onlaid green morocco quatrefoil at center volutes at corners volume I with FRONT DOUBLURE OF BROWN MOROCCO semé with rows of alternating quatrefoils and dots at center A MINIATURE PORTRAIT OF SHELLEY UNDER GLASS framed by a laurel wreath inlaid with four red morocco cinquefoils navy blue moiré silk endleaves all edges gilt and delicately gauffered. Housed together in a fleece-lined red cloth drop-back box. Frontispiece in each volume vignette title pages. Front flyleaves with engraved bookplates of Edward Laurence Doheny and Carrie Estelle Doheny. A FLAWLESS AND SPARKLING SET.<br/> <br/> This is the outstanding Doheny copy in lovely bindings of a body of literature graced with a lyricism Day asserts is "unmatched elsewhere in English verse in its ethereal ideal beauty." While the notes of Shelley's wife appended here have aroused considerable denigration she is accused among other things of making her husband's verse less political than it actually was her editorial work is nevertheless professional and has remained an essential source for the study of Shelley's work. As Betty T. Bennett explains "biographers and critics agree that Mary Shelley's commitment to bring her husband the notice she believed his works merited was the single major force that established Shelley's reputation during a period when he almost certainly would have faded from public view." Thanks to her efforts Shelley 1792-1822 is one of the best-known English poets and an icon of the Romantic movement. According to DNB our editor Henry Harry Buxton Forman 1842–1917 "channelled a general enthusiasm into a minute study of textual details for which his careful and exacting temperament was ideally suited. His patient application produced impressive editions of Shelley" who was along with Keats Forman's main literary interest. After studying under and then working for Douglas Cockerell Francis Sangorski and George Sutcliffe founded their own bindery in 1901 and continued in a successful partnership until 1912 when Francis tragically drowned. Despite this loss the firm grew and prospered employing a staff of 80 by the mid-1920s and becoming perhaps the most successful English bindery of the 20th century. The "Cosway" binding with painted miniatures inlaid in handsome morocco apparently originated with the London bookselling firm of Henry Sotheran about 1909 the year G. C. Williamson's book entitled "Richard Cosway" was remaindered by Sotheran and presumably given this special decorative treatment. The name "Cosway"--referring to the British miniature painter Richard Cosway 1742-1821--was then used to describe any book so treated whoever its author. This set was bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe for book dealer J. W. Robinson of Los Angeles who supplied many books for the superb collection of Estelle Doheny 1875-1958 one of the most distinguished women book collectors of the 20th century whose magnificent library was especially rich in fine bindings. Volumes from her collection are sought after for their especially fine condition. [Printed at the Ballantyne Press for] Reeves & Turner unknown
1829ST17129-039London: Printed for John Brooks 1829. 229 x 152 mm. 9 x 6". xxxii 1 leaf section title 270 2 pp. without the initial blank. <br/> LUXURIOUS OLIVE GREEN MOROCCO VIGOROUSLY AND SPLENDIDLY GILT BY ZAEHNSDORF stamp-signed on front doublure and with the firm's oval exhibition stamp on rear endleaf covers framed by multiple plain and decorative rules and garlands of palm and olive branches large central panel densely tooled with 13 horizontal rows of either four or five elegant floral sprigs of various shapes some within flower-framed ovals others on a stippled background; flat spine gilt in similar fashion gilt titling TAN MOROCCO DOUBLURES with intricate central gilt arabesque on a field semé with gilt dots and daggers tan morocco endleaves with gilt border top edge gilt and beautifully gauffered to match the floral design on the covers. From the collection of Cornelius J. Hauck though apparently with his bookplate removed. Granniss 45. Spine sunned toward brown a ubiquitous problem with green morocco very slight rubbing to joints top inch of rear joint a little more significantly so front flyleaf with small closed tear at fore edge title page with small mended half-inch tear in the same place but a very desirable copy nonetheless the text clean and pleasing and the riotously embellished binding almost flaming with gold.<br/> <br/> With distinguished provenance this is a glittering exhibition binding that makes a memorable display with its fine and dense pointillé ground its exquisitely gauffered top edge and its especially refined floral and leafy ornamentation being particularly notable. A spiritual odyssey of lovers divided and seeking reunion "The Revolt of Islam" is Shelley's longest work despite its title the poem has little if anything to do with Islam though religion is generally addressed. The work was issued late in 1817 as "Laon and Cythna" but certain passages of that piece disturbed the publisher who demanded that they be changed or removed. Shelley reluctantly agreed and his alterations included the substitution of the present title. We have the Brooks edition with a new title page using the text of the first edition second issue with the fly title correctly bound as d1 and the preface ending on p. xxi. As Granniss indicates "the original quires and cancel leaves of the work fell into the hands of John Brooks who issued them in 1829 with a new title." Our volume comes from the illustrious collection of Cincinnati businessman arborist and philanthropist Cornelius J. Hauck 1893-1967 whose fortune was made in the family brewery; the auction of his library at Christie's in 2006 totaled more than $12.4 million this item was lot #593 selling for $3360.
