Description

Two volumes, each set being one of 200 sets (from an edition of 250 sets, of which 50 sets were issued with a set of proofs). Set in Goudy Modern type and printed on Rosa paper. Bound by The Fine Bindery, one volume in brown, and the other in olive green Canson Ingres paper wrappers, each volume with a Weissenborn wood engraving on the upper cover. All housed in an original maroon paper slipcase. Each volume is 150 x 110 mm. Volume 1, pp. [32], has 12 engravings by Hellmuth Weissenborn, one for each month of the year. Volume 2, pp.[32], has 12 engravings by Hellmuth Weissenborn, one for each line of Rupert Brooke's poem 'The Soldier'. The engravings were probably executed in the 1940s after Weissenborn had left Germany in 1939.
