Descripción del artículo del vendedor

FIRST EDITIONS, ONE OF CIRCA 40 BOUND SETS, frontispieces by Wyndham Goodden, Albert Rutherston, Max Beerbohm, Hans Strohbach et al. with a couple colour-printed, further illustrations by Beerbohm, Goodden, Strohbach, Freda Tremlett, Eric Ravilious (as 'Ravilions'), K.G.J.C. Knowles, Phyllis Alden, Edward Burra, Michael Salaman, Rex Whistler, et al., first volume with tipped in errata slip following title-page (not present in original issue, correcting the spelling of Albert Rutherston (from Rukerston), half-titles browned, one or two faint spots in first volume, pp. [iv], 203; [iv], 217, crown 8vo, original quarter green cloth with sides of marbled paper, the original front wrappers bound in at rear of each volume, backstrips lettered in gilt and a little faded, a little wear at extremities, light spotting to edges and endpapers, Order Form for issues laid in at rear of first volume, good. Both volumes signed, to the verso of the flyleaf, by editor and contributor, Peter Burra - Mary H. Walker has also signed beneath on the second volume, wherein she contributes the poem 'Cressida's Room'. Burra attended Lancing College, then Christ Church, Oxford - from when these volumes originate; by the time of his death in a plane crash in 1937, in his late twenties, he had a burgeoning reputation as a literary and music critic. Farrago was a student production of perhaps unrivalled beauty and accomplishment in that field, running for an allotted period whilst both Editor and Publisher were up at Oxford. They were assisted by an illustrious list of contributors - with funding from Viscount Esher, and printed by John Johnson, the university printer, they secured literary contributions from Evelyn Waugh (two poems under the title 'Juvenilia'), David Cecil, John Sparrow, Cecil Day Lewis, A.J.A. Symons, Laurence Whistler, et al., alongside their own contributions and those of their immediate peers (amongst whom, Goronwy Rees, Gilbert Highet, Richard Comyns Carr). This bound issue, with general title-pages and indexes to each, is uncommon; an advertising brochure (not present here) containing press opinions of the first volume and announcing the second refers to, at that point, 'forty copies only [having] been bound', but that is the only basis for asserting a limitation - fewer is more probable.
