Sobre este artículo
(Hammersmith: Kelmscott Press, 1893. Morris, William. Octavo. (vi), 216pp. One of 500 copies. Borders and initials by William Morris. Printed in Golden type in two colors. Peterson cites Sidney Cockerell's observation that this title was "one of the rarest books issued from the Press because of its popularity"; despite its relatively large edition size, copies of the Kelmscott Shakespeare remain elusive on the market even today, furthering Cockerell's declaration. This is the Garden copy, with leather book label on front paste-down. Original full limp vellum binding shows light wrinkling to lower front cover and spine head and minimal finger soiling. All terracotta-colored ties intact. Overall, a fine copy, housed in a cloth folding case. (Peterson A11).
