ROSSETTI (Christina).

Speaking Likenesses.

With engravings by Arthur Hughes. 8vo. viii, 96 pp. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt, boards outlined in blind, top edge gilt. London, Macmillan, 1874.

£150.00

The second issue binding, without the gilt block by Hughes on the upper cover, which was apparently mislaid by the publishers. Colbeck, Christina Rossetti, 15.

A very good copy, spine quite faded, joints, corners, and head and tail caps rubbed, some offsetting to free endpapers. Lengthy near contemporary gift inscription to front free endpaper, a birthday poem which evokes Rossetti’s style.
