Octavo. 27pp. With seven illustrations after woodcuts by James M. Dignon. Text designed by Dignon, Mark Livingston. and W. M. Ittman, Jr., and printed in two colors. An unusual literary-themed text from the Press, which published a handful of exquisitely printed fine press editions in the 1970s. The arrangement of this Wilde selection differs from the more religiously-themed Mason Hill Press publications, and seems to take cues from the Eragny Press of Lucien Pissarro. Spine evenly sunned, else fine in patterned boards backed in olive green morocco.
