6/6 COPIES hand-printed by B.W. Jackson, with wood-engraved title-page vignette and 12 further head-piece wood engravings by David Jones, leaves 7, printed on rectos only, small 4to, publisher's maroon morocco by J. Oman at the press, upper board with blind-stamped title repeated vertically, edges rubbed, head of backstrip frayed, very good. A poem for every month of the year, each illustrated by an evocative wood-engraving, by, we believe, not the David Jones, but an accomplished namesake.
