Octavo. (17)pp. Woodcut frontispiece by Smith, who also contributed the tail-piece at the colophon. Set in Hammer Uncial type and produced to commemorate the centenary of Morris's birth. Bound in quarter buckram with blue paper over boards and paper spine label, evocative of bindings completed at Morris's Kelmscott Press. Some staining to buckram, mild edge shelf-toning and wear, else very good. Some gatherings unopened.
