This stunning little antique book of the Poems of Ella Wheeler Wilcox was published by Gay and Hancock. The book is undated but I'd estimate it to be from circa 1910. 


The book features a limp leather binding, with an intricate art nouveau style decoration blind stamped to the front. Limp leather bindings originated from the medieval era but they became popular again in the late Victorian period. The leather extends over the edge of the book block in what's known as a yapp binding. This makes it very easy for the leather to become damaged and torn around the edges.

The book is in very good condition for it's age with just some minor marks and scuffs to the suede. 

Inside, the paper shows light toning and marking but the text is clear and bright. There are no inscriptions. The endpapers are beautifully illustrated. 


Dimensions approximately 15.5cm x 10.5cm x 1cm.

The book will arrive hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and string.

I use a range of eco friendly, 100% recyclable jiffy bags and boxes, and whenever possible I use brown paper tape. The green bubbled wrap is biodegradable and the clear bubble wrap is 100% recyclable. I also reuse boxes when I feel it's appropriate (if the boxes are sturdy enough).
