With a list of the more important Ruskiniana. Compiled by Thomas J. Wise and James P. Smart. Edited by T. J. Wise. In two volumes. [Facsimile edition]. Pp. xxviii+330(last blank)+xii+264(last blank), frontispiece portrait, 2 decorative headpieces, appendices, additional notes, errata, general index; small cr. 4to; navy cloth, sp…ines lettered in gilt, the boards of Volume I faintly scuffed, a couple of the fore-corners a trifle bruised; dust wrappers, faintly soiled, edges lightly creased and split; a couple of pages slightly creased; Dawsons of Pall Mall, Folkestone, Kent, 1974. Second reprint. *Originally issued in 19 parts from 1889 to 1893, then bound in two volumes for subscribers, in a limited edition of 250, in 1893. The cancel leaves issued to replace the original pages 41 to 44 in Part II are also included here, which is why there are 2 sections paginated 41-44 in the present Volume I. Wise 'legitimized' some of his Ruskin forgeries by including them in this bibliography. Barker & Collins, in A Sequel to an Inquiry [p. 135] describe this as 'the first sign of a new development: "dressing-up" a forgery by announcing its existence in print'.

First Edition. A Catalogue of Printed Books, Manuscripts, and Autograph Letters. Collected by Thomas James Wise. Vol. XI [only]. Introduction by Arundell Esdaile. Pp. xxiv+204(last Ashley library device, colophon), frontispiece portrait [Mrs. Wise] with tissue guard, plus 43 plates, a couple of facsimiles in text, addenda, notes…, index; cr. 4to; cream cloth over bevelled boards, lettered and decorated in gilt, a trifle marked, spine faintly faded; t.e.g., others uncut; hinges reinforced, a couple of tiny edge chips, occasional light foxing; printed for private circulation only, London, 1936. First edition, being one of 200 copies on antique paper. [Todd 420b]. *Eleven volumes of the catalogue of Thomas J. Wise's Ashley Library were published from 1922 to 1936, each containing an introduction by a well-known writer of the period. This is the final volume, published after Carter & Pollard's Enquiry and shortly before Wise's death. In the Preface, Wise states that ill health prevented him from writing an Introduction to this volume. 'I could tell so many stories and relate so many incidents in connection with the acquisition of the more prominent and fascinating of the items of which it is composed, that I feel sure I could have produced a paper which would have interested many other of my fellow collectors, and perhaps have encouraged them to continue this pleasant and useful pursuit. But the serious misfortune which caused the delay in the completion of Volume XI has also rendered this impossible, and physical weakness, combined with the still ragged state of my nerves, have frustrated my hopes, and the task must be left for some future occasion' [pp. xv-xvi].

Part II, Uncollected Contributions to Periodical Literature, begins with poems by 'A.C.S.' contributed to Fraser's Magazine, starting in 1849. Wilfred Partington devotes several pages to the saga of Wise's attribution of these poems to the [very] young Swinburne, and his subsequent printing of the poems. 'What a day was that when Wise through his private-printings . . . could display little Algernon as a poet-just-turned-eleven! And what a nuisance it was that he never wrote those poems' [Partington, p. 167].

First edition. Todd 416b. *Wise's second list of his productions: 19 items of 'Shelleyana,' 25 other printings, and three works 'in preparation'. A printed note on the title pager verso states: 'The following list is printed as a Record, not by way of Advertisement. Books printed in short numbers for private circulation become so rapidly and entirely absorbed, that it is exceedingly difficult to obtain information regarding them when such is required for bibliographical or other purposes. Hence the necessity for the present Catalogue'. However, Todd suggests the Ashely Library lists were 'designed to advertise what was then available, for a consideration, to interested bibliophiles' [Todd (Various Extraordinary Books), p. 11].
