Wraps. Condición: Very Good. First edition. A souvenir of a performance, and appreciation more generally, of Handel's "Acis and Galatea". 4to. 27.5 by 17.5 cm. Unpaginated, 15 pp. (text only on rectos) plus 19 plates, some with tinting. Foreward on the Prucell Operatic Society by J. A. Fuller Maitland, and on the background and history of the oratorio of "Acis and Galatea", by W. Barclay Squire. Finally, a description of the "Masque of Love", by Christopher St. John. This booklet was created clearly to be more than just an ephemeral souvenir, with its fine paper stock, its numerous plates and its aesthetic values more generally. Wraps are worn, with 2 cm chip at spine base, a small loss at spine head, and also tiny losses in corners and along edges. Clean generally within, and still an attractive copy.
