[Rarebooks] FS: Shakespeare's HAMLET Illustrated and SIGNED by Eric Gill

[Charles Agvent]

One of hundreds of titles from the Limited Editions Club in our 
inventory,  including a number of books still in their original shipping 
boxes, as well as presentation and publisher's copies, portfolios of 
signed prints, and pieces of original art, including in some cases the 
entire set of original drawings and even unused pieces.

SHAKESPEARE, William. THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET, PRINCE OF DENMARK. [High 
Wycombe]: [Limited Editions Club], [1933]. Octavo (5-1/4" x 8") bound in 
full blind-stamped pigskin leather and typeset and printed by hand on 
Barcham Green paper by Hague and Gill. Copy #210 of 1500 designed and 
decorated with wood engravings by Eric Gill and SIGNED by the artist on 
the colophon page. A beautiful book, often found quite worn because of 
the nature of the pigskin binding, this copy is significantly better 
than average, with only mild darkening to the spine and slight rubbing 
to the tips but with no chips. One page opened roughly. About Fine in a 
Near Fine slipcase, complete with some fading. (#014446)        $850.00
