Some offsetti…ng from plates to title-pages. With a fine fore-edge painting (ca. 1935) by Lyman Young depicting a typical English county fox-hunting scene with hounds and riders. The fore-edge is signed by Lyman Young on the final free-endpaper. Full contemporary maroon straight-grain morocco, covers decoratively bordered in gilt, spine with four shallow raised bands, decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt, gilt decorated turn-ins, red paper endleaves. Minor repairs to the outer joints, near the crown. Housed in a later red cloth slipcase. Lyman Young (1893-1984) was an American cartoonist, trained at the Chicago Art Institute and based on California, famous for his comic strip "Tim Tyler's Luck." According to Weber, "Young knew Col. Don L. Wells who commissioned him to make fore-edge paintings, possibly during the mid-1930s in Los Angeles, CA. Young apparently did not supply title-labels, but he did sign the books, typically on the rear free endleaf, facing the fore-edge. In 1940 he demonstrated painting on a fore-edge as part of the "Art in Action" project at the Golden Gate International Exposition, Palace of Fine Arts." (Annotated Dictionary of Fore-Edge Painting). There are eight examples of Lyman Young's Fore-Edge Painting in Weber's Annotated Dictionary including the present, which is pictured in color and described thusly " the artist offered a scene of fox hunting with the hounds and riders. Young wrote his name as per his usual style, on the back inside leaf along the recto's edge, using red colored paint: his name in capital letters" (Annotated Dictionary of Fore-Edge Painting). A rare example of Lyman Young's work.
