Sobre este artículo
(London): The Land Press, (1988). First Edition. Hardcover. Fine in a close to Fine clamshell box with a minor bump at the bottom corners. Quarto (8-1/2" x 11-3/4") bound by Constance K. Wozny in a striking full black morocco leather art binding with onlays depicting a poppy weeping seeds of tears, tan morocco pastedowns, and marbled endpapers. Illustrated with 11 collotype illustrations from contemporary Civil War photographs by Alexander Gardner, Timothy O'Sullivan, and others from the Library of Congress collection chosen to illustrate the mood of the scenes described in the book. One of the illustrations is bound in at the beginning of the text; the other ten are loose in a glassine envelope. Copy #94 of 140 printed by Gwasg Gregynog, SIGNED by the binder and dated 2011 on the colophon page. The Land Press published this edition of Crane's classic in a choice of five bindings designed by Denise Lubbett, Angela James, Romilly Saumarez Smith, and Jen Lindsay. This appears to have been an unbound copy that was privately bound at a later date (2011) by Wozny, a member of the Guild of Book Workers and the Hand Bookbinders of California. Housed in a custom cloth clamshell box
