Description: SCARCE WM. DEAN HOWELLS LONDON FILMS 1905 HARPER 1ST ED. 8vo 241p ILLUSTRATED w. 24 PHOTOS & a few lithos (several poetic and Turner-esque, through London fog). TRULY GREAT BOOK ABOUT LONDON: PRECISE & REALISTIC WHEN NEEDED, POETIC & ALIVE TO ALL SENSES WHEN CALLED FOR. A few Chapter titles: “CERTAIN TRAITS OF THE LONDON SPRINGTIME”, “GLIMPSES OF THE LOWLY & THE LOWLIER”, “FISHING FOR WHITEBAIT”, etc. etc. Pages appear hand-cut. There are two labels inside the front cover: “Rules of the Fay Library, Southborn Mass.” and a tiny label for “The Old Corner Book Store, Boston Mass.” and a list of withdrawals in ’59 and ’60 inside the back cover, but THIS IS NOT A “LIBRARY EDITION” as that term’s generally understood. It has clearly not been bound or re-bound for the heavy usage of a library. Light wear to corners and frontispiece page has become detached, otherwise in very good condition. Cellophane wraps.
