1919WRCLIT73361Long Eaton 1919. Four volumes. Whole numbers 23 4 and 5. Quarto. Decorated wrappers. Some modest fraying or shallow chipping along a few overlap wrapper edges occasional light foxing first number pulled at staples otherwise very good. Early representative numbers of this annual published at the Long Eaton school which was found in 1910. While the indices of contributors yield up no names of literary stars the periodical is distinguished by the presence of tipped-in woodcuts some in color and examples of color stencil prints of embroidery designs. Number 3 is evidently wanting one of the woodcuts called for in the table which was evidently issued as a loose separate. Wrappers of two numbers denote it a 'Magazine' although the uniformity of 'Annual" is reflected on the title-pages. unknown books
