Beschreibung

(Altrincham: Sherratt and Hughes 1942). First UK Edition. Small 4 to. xiii + 156pp. Black and white frontispiece + 18 plates + 2 maps. # 92 of a Limited Edition of an unspecified number of copies. "In this record of his co-tenancy of the famous Hampton Bishop stretch of water, the title of 'Diary' is perhaps misleading, for here is no bare list of day by day events, catches and disappointments. Rather is the book an absorbing picture of the fishing and of people most connected with the water, together with incident and anecdote clothing the bare bones of the Diary which Hutton has kept from his earliest days." Superbly rebound by the world-renowned Bayntun-Riviere of Bath in full brown calf, with 5 raised bands to the spine. Title in gilt on red label to the spine; author in gilt to green label. Angling-related decorations in gilt to the spine. Double-border in gilt to the front and rear boards. All edges gilt. Marbled end-papers. A stunning production. A fine copy really clean internally. NB: this is a Bayntun Riviere binding of the Sherratt and Hughes first edition from 1942. Photographs/scans available upon request. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 355490720932
