First Edition. 8v0. 100pp. With an Introduction by The Earl of Wicklow. Large vo. 101pp. illustrated with 50 superb colour plates of many streets and places in Dublin in 1966. Flora Mitchell was an American born Irish Artist chiefly remembered for her superb paintings of Dublin. Fine copy in a good dustwrapper. " The rosy patchwork quilts of our streets are gradually falling to the ground, and to walk in Dublin brings the realization that soon it must become just another city of concrete and glass, colourless and sterotyped. Already modern buildings rise elegantly above the many-hued kaleidoscope below, and as the familiar scenes must soon be swept away into limbo, let us take a walk in fancy through our well-loved city. No need to leave our chair by the fire, we can weave ourselves a tapestry from the threads of yesterday and today, threads of what we have seen, have heard, have read, or even dreamed." A Scarce book and a Very Beautiful Collector's Item as is sung "The hallowed halls and houses, the haunting children's rhymes, that once was Dublin City,in the rare ould times." Signed by Flora Mitchell.
