1910ST17129-032London: Published for the Florence Press by Chatto & Windus 1910. ONE OF 250 COPIES ON PAPER 12 additional copies were printed on vellum. 250 x 185 mm. 9 7/8 x 7 1/4". 5 p.l. 120 pp. 1 leaf. <br/> ANIIMATED DARK GREEN INLAID CRUSHED MOROCCO ELABORATELY GILT BY SANGORSKI & SUTCLIFFE signed on front turn-in covers with inlaid border of russet ribbon laced at each corner through a blue heart from which is suspended a pair of bells in inlaid brown morocco an inner border of red inlaid hearts alternating with small gilt floral tools front cover with centerpiece medallion of five inlaid flowers in green white and yellow on a densely stippled ground within a red inlaid circle with a gilt collar of oak leaves and acorns rear board with centerpiece inlay in brown and pink of Pan pipes suspended on a ribbon the whole enclosed in a gilt garland; raised bands spine gilt in compartments featuring floral cornerpieces and knotwork centerpiece with red heart and dot inlays very ornate gilt inner dentelles silk pastedowns and endpapers all edges gilt.

With the binders' typed description of the binding on Sangorski & Sutcliffe letterhead laid in at front. ◆Tips of joints and corners almost imperceptibly rubbed one leaf with small faint stain a few minute marginal adhesions otherwise INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY IN VIRTUALLY PERFECT CONDITION.<br/> <br/> This is a finely bound and finely printed edition of a group of essays short stories and autobiographical and travel sketches originally published in various periodicals and first printed as a collection in 1881. Founded in 1908 by the London publishers Chatto & Windus and operated by Philip Lee Warner the Florence Press had as its expressed intention the production of "beautiful books in the choicest types . . . in larger editions and at lower cost than was usual with such monuments of typography as the issues of the Kelmscott and other presses." Florence books are readily distinguishable by their special type designed by Herbert P. Horne after 15th century Italian faces that are elegant simple and easily readable. Binders Francis Sangorski and George Sutcliffe met as boys attending Douglas Cockerell's bookbinding classes at the L. C. C. Central School. Cockerell was so impressed by their skill that he hired Sutcliffe as a finisher and Sangorski as a forwarder. In 1901 Francis and George went into business for themselves and before long they had become two of the most renowned English binders of the 20th century. We can date the time of our binding to the decade of the 1910s because there is a letter from the binders laid in with an explanation of the decoration on stationery with the printed date "191__." The letter indicates that "250 different pieces of various colored leathers are used as inlays" many to suggest the contents of the essays: "the wedding bells and heart border are suggestive of the first essay 'Virginibus Puerisque.' The front centerpiece composed of spring flowers surrounded by a wreath of oak suggests 'Crabbed Age and Youth' and the back centerpiece suggests 'Pan's Pipes.'" In terms of its design quality of execution and condition the binding is simply beautiful. Published for the Florence Press by Chatto & Windus unknown

Limp vellum binding with four green ties; gilt lettering on spine and upper cover t.e.g. Very faint spotting to front free endpaper slight offsetting of ties. Otherwise a pristine copy.<br /> <br /> Provenance: William Russell Flint from the family by descent.<br /> Beinecke Stevenson 79; Ransom 278:6; Tomkinson 85:6; Prideaux 13. A splendid edition of Stevenson's first collection of essays which promote a spirit of playfulness in defiance of both the hardships of human life and the restrictions imposed by bourgeois callowness. The volume brought together essays that had been previously published in the Cornhill Magazine and Macmillan's: "Virginibus Puerisque i" 1876; " ii" 1881; "iii: On Falling in Love" 1877; "iv: The Truth of Intercourse" 1879; "Crabbed Age and Youth" 1878; "An Apology for Idlers" 1877; "Ordered South" 1874; "Aes Triplex" 1878; "El Dorado" 1878; "The English Admirals" 1878; "Some Portraits by Raeburn" previously unpublished; "Child's Play" 1878; "Walking Tours" 1876; "Pan's Pipes" 1878; "A Plea for Gas Lamps" 1878<br /> The essays inspired Norman WILKINSON 1878 - 1971 to create the 12 striking and lyrical images that accompany the texts. Wilkinson was a British artist renowned for his poster work and honored by the British Admiralty for coming up with the idea and design for "dazzle camouflage" to protect Royal Navy ships from attacks by German submarines.<br /> Founded in 1908 by the London publishers Chatto & Windus and operated by Philip Lee Warner THE FLORENCE PRESS had as its mission to produce "beautiful books in the choicest types" but in somewhat larger and less costly editions than Kelmscott and the other more celebrated English fine presses. Florence books are readily distinguishable by their special type designed by Herbert P. Horne after 15th century Italian faces that are elegant simple and easily readable. Tomkinson p. 84<br /> This volume comes from the collection of Sir William Russell Flint 1880 - 1969 a Scottish artist illustrator and author who was linked to the Pre-Raphaelites and art nouveau designers. He enjoyed much commercial success during his career was on staff for years at 'The Illustrated London News' was commissioned to illustrate many books and the librettos of several Gilbert and Sullivan librettos. He served as president of both The Royal Society of Painters Etchers and Engravers and the Royal Watercolour Society and was knighted in 1946. Chatto & Windus for the Florence Press unknown
