Printed in black and red with the Chaucer type designed by Morris for his "KELMSCOTT CHAUCER." Speaking of the work, Burne-Jones, "Indeed when the book is done, if we live to finish it, it will be like a pocket cathedral - so full of design and I think Morris the greatest master of ornament in the world." Today, it is still held by many to be the most exquisite book of printed English literature. [Edward Burne-Jones, Letter to Charles Eliot Norton, 1894] Bright and clean. Only the very slightest foxing and minimal yellowing. In excellent condition for ephemera this old. Condition overall: Near Fine.
