16mo. (9)ff. Pre-Raphaelite-inspired lettering by Theodore B. Hapgood, designer of posters for The Century Magazine, The Inland Printer, Little, Brown & Company, and a range of other publishers. Hand-illuminated throughout by Emilie Marthecia Whitten. Printed by Carl H. Heintzmann. Bound in blue paper over boards backed in plain linen, with titling in black. Mild toning to boards, else near fine in kraft paper dust wrapper with hand-written spine titling. Also in original slipcase, rather worn. A near fine example of the Arts & Crafts scene in Boston.
