Descripción

8vo., First Edition, neat contemporary inscription on blank preliminary; contemporary red half roan BY GRACE & PRUDDEN, grained cloth boards, back with five raised bands, second compartment lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments ruled in gilt, red sprinkled edges, green endpapers, joint mildly rubbed (but binding entirely sound), a remarkably bright, clean, crisp copy in wholly unrestored local binding. THE BINDING IS SIGNED ON FRONT FREE ENDPAPER VERSO. Brighton bookbinder William Prudden (1808-1870) was born in Chichester and is recorded in the 1851 census at 14 Spring Gardens, Brighton where his son George followed him into the bindery. On William's death in 1870 his second wife Grace and George took on the now-thriving bindery as Grace Prudden & Co., establishing for it a particular local prominence. As is often the case, this copy has been bound without the frontispiece and plate which are occasionally present. A REMARKABLY BRIGHT, CLEAN COPY WITH NOTABLE LOCAL PROVENANCE. Anderson, p.281.
