About This Item
Oxford: Printed by the Shakespeare Head Press for Basil Blackwell, 1930. Original Wrappers. Very Good binding. Octavo. [16] pp. Stapled pamphlet, though the staples have been removed and there is some discoloration from the staples in the central folio, so it was perhaps a wise decision to remove them. An uncommon list of the works printed by the Press, many of the more important works like Chaucer, Bede, Pindar, and Froissart occupy a full page and include engravings. Not in Ransom or Rogerson.
