Sobre este artículo
Boston: Little, Brown & Co, 1926. First Edition. First Edition. 9 x 6 1/2 inches. A stellar mosaic binding by Curtis Walters (Signed gilt pallet, "Bound by C. Walters" on rear dentelle) intricate and astonishingly high number of inlaid mosaic design, comprising an overlapping and juxtaposed design element in a mosaic pattern on both covers and three panels of the spine. The artistry and accomplish of this master binder are seldom better exemplified than this binding, which in every manner, including design, coloration, finish work and more, all point to greatness. And even better the binding is in extremely fine condition, with absolutely no signs wear, owing to its preservation in a morocco-backed marbled paper folder chemise, fitting perfectly into its matching slipcase. Full blue crushed morocco doublures, quadruple gilt fillet ruling to dentelles, with two-color inlaid between, silk blue moire endsheets. With a Presentation Note on the publisher's paper in card, "With the Compliments of the Author" and signed by William Dana Orcutt. We can add no more than to say, any admirer of true greatness in fine bookbinding or book arts would be humbled to own such a binding.
