This copy has a slip tipped in at the hinge, between the front pastedown and the front free endpaper, indicating that this title has been taken over by Mathews after the dissolution of his partnership with John Lane: “This book is now supplied by / Elkin Mathews / Vigo St., London. / October, 1894.“ Nelson, The Early Nineties notes that there were 126 of the 200 copies for England still in stock at the dissolution.
Fine copy with sunned spine.
