Nash really does capture the spirit of the original. Cobden-Sanderson thought so as well and wrote Nash: "What a perfectly beautiful book you have made of The Book Beautiful! I am enchanted with it! Paper type arrangement all combined under your clever hands to a while which is at once a thing of beauty and a symbol of that great order touched with delight which I am never tired of finding to be the supreme characteristic of the universe itself" quoted in O'Day Catalogue p.1-2. The praise goes on. . . . Uncommon. This copy with November 1918 gift inscription from Sylvia Loeb to Ruth Eddy. We are uncertain but the presenter is perhaps Sylvia Loeb Weil who co-authored with Rosetta Goldsmith several children's puzzle books. John Henry Nash unknown
