Sobre este artículo
London: Wells Gardner Darton & Co. Ltd, 1905. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. Uncommon pair of Lucas' companion volumes of stories of old: OLD FASHIONED TALES (1905) and its follow-up FORGOTTEN TALES OF LONG AGO (1906), both uniform in design and format with elaborate decorated covers by F.D. Bedford, who also illustrated both. The first volume is navy blue and gilt on grey linen, the second yellow, orange, gold and black on cream cloth, both unusually well preserved. The second volume has a short tear in cloth head of spine, but the rare dustjacket, albeit worn and with careful, archival taped repairs on its verso. The separated pieces of the dustjacket for the first volume are laid-in. Same library bookplate on pastedown in both.
