Beschreibung

A beautifully presented book of poetry from Thomas Hood, published in 1893 with detailed illustrations. A first edition second printing of poems by Thomas Hood, with a preface by Alfred Ainger. Hood was particularly well-known for his humorous poetry as well as his regular contributions to The London Magazine and Athenaeum. This 1893 book includes some of Thomas Hood's most well known poems, such as 'Tim Turpin', 'Morning Meditations, and 'Queen Mab'. Illustrations by Charles E. Brock, including a frontispiece and one hundred and thirty black and white illustrations throughout the text. Collated, complete. In publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, smart. The cloth remains bright with beautiful gilt illustration on cover. The gilt has faded more on the spine, with a bit of bumping particularly to the head of the spine, resulting in a small amount of loss. Some very slight wear to extremities. A few marks to the rear board. Front hinge is starting but remains firm. Bookseller's label to the front paste down. Blind stamp on rear endpaper. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean, with some occasional spotting. Very Good. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 802D13
