The Ballad of Reading Gaol By C. 3. 3.
London; Leonard Smithers Royal Arcade London W 1898. 1898. First edition first printing; one of 800 unnumbered copies printed on handmade paper; 30 were simultaneously printed on Japanese vellum. Large post octavo pp. viii 31 1 blank. Publisher's original cinnamon-colour linen white linen spine; titles gilt to spine. Printed at the Chiswick Press but not named on the imprint. Soiling to inner edges of boards corners slightly bumped top edge dusty. Contents clean and rather bright. A very good copy. In 1895 Oscar Wilde was sentenced to two years' hard labour for 'gross indecency'. This poem written while Wilde was in exile in France and Naples in 1897 uses the case of his fellow inmate Charles Thomas Wooldridge to highlight the brutality of the prison system and the irony of the state sentencing a man to death for exactly the same crime. Even without Wilde's name on the title-page the first 800 copies sold out within a week. Mikolyzk A91 Mason 371. London; Leonard Smithers Royal Arcade London W, 1898. hardcover

Wilde, Oscar With Woodcuts by Frans Masereel
The Ballad of Reading Gaol.
London: Methuen & Co. Ltd 1925. First illustrated edition of this rare Wilde title. Royal octavo original half cloth illustrated with woodcuts by Frans Masereel. One of 450 numbered copies this is number 16. Fine in the rare original dust jacket which is in very good condition. Wilde’s “theme is not as is often supposed art’s divorce from life but its inescapable arraignment by experience. His creative works almost always end in unmasking. The hand that adjusts the green carnation suddenly shakes an admonitory finger. While the ultimate virtue in Wilde’s essays is in make-believe the denouement of his dramas and narratives is that masks have to go. We must acknowledge what we are. Wilde at least was keen to do so. Though he offered himself as the apostle of pleasure his created world contains much pain†Ellmann xvi. Methuen & Co. Ltd hardcover
