Quartette The Christmas Annual of the Civil & Military Gazette by Four Anglo-Indian Writers
The "Civil and Military Gazette" Press Lahore first edition1885. Edition of 250 copies. Contemporary blind-patterned cloth original printed wrappers and advertisement leaves if any not retained 8vo. 125 pp. David Richards' authoritative bibliography notes that the advertisements present in many though not all copies do not form part of the book. Includes the first appearance of 'The Phantom Rickshaw'. Quartette was sold on the 19-year old Kipling's initiative as the 1885 Christmas supplement to the Civil & Military Gazette the Indian newspaper for which he was then journalist and general provider of material. It includes 16 works - eight in prose and eight poems - by Kipling himself and by his parents and sister the most notable being Rudyard's "The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes C.E." and "The Phantom 'Rickshaw". Only 250 copies were printed and Kipling wrote amusingly to his cousin Margaret Burne-Jones about the chaotic circumstances of the production: copies were printed and bound up in the Civil & Military Gazette printing hall on overtime throughout the 'mad night' of 17-18 December 1885 with tots of brandy and plugs of free tobacco from Kipling 'twelve pounds of the hideous mixture of cow dung and dried grass they delight in' to encourage the 'forty odd men besides binders to keep Quartette going' ". Joints showing slight splitting though firm and sound some wear at spine-ends front endpapers replaced and with old tape-repair to first endpaper and minor loss to foot of gutter of second endpapers tanned textblock Good.

KIPLING, Rudyard.
Quartette.
Lahore: The "Civil and Military Gazette" Press 1885. An early Kipling rarity and first appearance of a classic ghost story First edition first impression of the book written by members of the Kipling family. Published in an edition of 250 copies it is rare in original wrappers and with advertisements at the end. The book includes the first appearance of "The Phantom 'Rickshaw'" and "The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes C. E.". Kipling described the conception of this work in his autobiography Something of Myself 1937. He noted that "in the cold weather of 1885 we four made up a Christmas annual. which pleased us a good deal and attracted a certain amount of attention. Later much later it became a 'collector's piece' in the US book-market and to that extent smudged the memories of its birth". The 16 pieces comprising eight in prose and eight in verse were written by "four Anglo-Indian writers" as described on the title page and remaining anonymous throughout the book who were Kipling his father mother and sister. Kipling had initiated the publication with the Civil and Military Gazette and it was sold by subscription. This slim volume gave the 19 year old writer an opportunity to publish his work and he contributed half of the texts. The ghost stories would become better-known and were reprinted within The Phantom 'Rickshaw and other tales in 1890. Kipling's father had been somewhat against publication of Quartette and wrote to Margaret Burne-Jones that he had hoped that someone would "rap Rudyard's knuckles for the unwholesomeness of 'The Phantom 'Rickshaw' and the coarseness of the 'Tragedy of Teeth'". The binding of the publication was particularly chaotic. According to Kipling the work took place at night by candlelight and he provided workers on overtime with tots of brandy and plugs of free tobacco to encourage the "forty odd men besides binders to keep Quartette going". Publication was announced on 19 December and the front cover was possibly designed by John Lockwood Kipling then serving as the first principal of the Mayo School of Art in Lahore. Richards notes that the advertisements "sometimes vary in number". He states "copies are known with only three leaves or four leaves or six or even eight with a blank final yellow leaf instead of the more standard seven. Copies were also bound without advertisements at Kipling's direction for family members. In some copies the last of the seven leaves of advertisements is pink rather than pale yellow". Additionally "the rear endsheet has been excised from some copies. with the stub pasted to the terminal leaf of advertisements". The present copy carries seven leaves of which the final leaf is pink. Octavo. Original wrappers printed in black. Housed in a red cloth chemise with a red morocco-backed slipcase. Ownership signature on front wrapper. Loss to most of spine minor chip at top right corner of front wrapper some slight rust-staining; a very good copy and a particularly attractive example.
