Very good. § Number 130 of a limited edition of 210. An elegant little book hand-printed at the short-lived Cranbrook Press by George Booth. As he explains on the elaborate title page "For the most part the contents of this little book appeared first in Cranbrook papers, the writer then being hidden under a nom de plume. These thoughts and fancies having given pleasure to some of their readers are now gathered together in this more convenient form for those who like to think a little, dream a little, work a little.".…

71,[1] pp. 1 vols. 4to. From an edition consisting of 210 copies, this being an unnumbered copy. 71,[1] pp. 1 vols. 4to. Designed and printed by hand on Cranbrook handmade paper by George Booth, with the assistance of Cecil Billington. Booth, editor of the Detroit EVENING NEWS, founded the Cranbrook Press in 1900, and through 1902 Ransom records ten imprints. His first type choice was based on Morris's casting of Jenson, and he commissioned handmade paper with the Press' watermark. His statement of purpose in SOMETHING ABOUT THE CRANBROOK PRESS, published earlier the same year, emphasized his quest for perfection and desire to emulate Caxton and Morris. Publisher's three-quarter vellum and boards, gilt label, untrimmed. Fine in plain wrapper, and somewhat nicked and battered board folding box, with manuscript caption. Institutional bookplate, and gift inscription from chairman of the Cranbrook Press on front free endpaper From an edition consisting of 210 copies, this being an unnumbered copy.…

George Booth was a true disciple of William Morris, not only in his desire to emulate the Kelmscott Press, but also to follow Morris' philosophy. In addition to running the press from the attic of the Detroit Evening News building, he used the wealth he had accrued through his highly successful newspaper business, to commission his own Arts and Crafts mansion, Cranbrook House, to fill it with bespoke furniture, tapestries and fine bindings. The tales were inspired by a visit Booth made to his ancestral home, Cranbrook, Kent. The inscription to Major Roberts of Glassenbury Manor from his cousin points out a couple of errors in the text of 'The Bride of Glassenbury' regarding a date and name of their common ancestor. With further press ephemera addressed to the Major.…
