Description:
London: Printed for T. Becket, and Co., 1773.. xi,[1],228pp. Octavo. Contemporary calf and marbled boards. Spine and extremities a bit worn, early mend to marginal tear in I3, light foxing, two ownership signatures on the front free endsheet (one 20th century), but a very good, large copy. First edition of this annotated translation by the prolific versifier, novelist and translator (most notably of Plutarch). His FABLES OF FLORA was exceedingly popular (though now somewhat faded), but this is the sole 18th century edition of this work located in ESTC, and only ten copies are located in North America. Becket did not cut corners in the production of this work, wrapping the text in margins of considerable generosity. NCBEL II:667.

The rubber bands are absent from two fore-edges, but the securing stick for one is still present, otherwise fine in printed sleeve. Copy #35 of 100 numbered copies, with the text and illustrations hand drawn, then digitized and gocco printed on Fabriano Ingres. Signed by the artist. The colophon elaborates upon the disaster and disruption which the edition survived (a flood, moves, etc). The text and illustration counterpoint that with an optimism born of finding endless tunnels grist for art and liberation.

Six pages on five sheets, octavo and quarto. 1966 letter on folded light onion-skin paper, with some short tears at edges, otherwise very good. A fine sequence of letters from the enfant terrible of the bibliographic study of erotica and certain branches of folklore, to the controversial independent US publisher, Lyle Stuart, covering a broad range of topics, including a potential project, the banning of some of his own publications, questioning some of Stuart's business practices and affiliations, Stuart's own submission to an unnamed periodical (undoubtedly NEUROTICA), royalties and characteristic arguments over money and accounting. The earliest letter, 7 Dec, 1949, relates to Stuart's submission: "That is a wonderful story you sent, and I will do everything I can to see it printed.
