(HOUSMAN, Laurence). George Meredith.
Jump to Glory Jane.
Housman’s first art commission. “The world of Housman’s illustrations is strange and highly personal, as remote from actual life as it is consistent and persuasive within itself […] Housman had not quite found his personal style in Jump to Glory Jane, though his people already have a characteristic wispiness” (Gordon Norton Ray)
Gift inscription to ffep: “Mary C. Page from Mrs. A. E. Lyman, 1893.”
Upper board irregularly dust stained, as from partial exposure. Otherwise about fine.
