Free endpapers with the usual offset shadow from binder's glue a couple of trivial spots internally just the slightest hint of use to the binding but A VERY FINE COPY--the text clean fresh and bright and in a lustrous virtually unworn binding. Adorning a 13th century classic this is a very pleasing product of the distinguished and historically important Club Bindery a workshop established at the end of the 19th century for the purpose of creating fine bindings for American bibliophiles. Written in 1295 the semi-autobiographical text here is a work of courtly love important as a reflection of the Medieval interest in that genre and also as a piece written partly in prose partly in verse and entirely in Italian rather than Latin. Our translation of "La Vita Nuova" is by art historian and Dante scholar Charles Eliot Norton 1827-1908 who assisted Longfellow with his translation of "The Divine Comedy" and who was one of the founders of the Dante Club. Once the Grolier Club was founded in 1884 as an organization to further the interests of America's most serious bibliophiles it soon became apparent that the country's few established hand binders were overtaxed in providing repairs and rebinding for the club members' rapidly accumulating acquisitions. As a consequence in 1895 Grolier members along with Edwin Holden and other wealthy collectors established the Club Bindery in order to attract European craftsmen to provide close to home fine quality binding work rivalling what was available abroad. The Club Bindery was in operation until 1909 with Robert Hoe being its most influential manager and client. It provided bindings that tended to be traditional in style--though frequently with elaborate decoration--and that lived up to its patrons' expectations in terms of excellence. The first members of the staff of the Club Bindery were the Englishmen R. W. Smith and Frank Mansell. They were subsequently joined by a number of French binders chief among them being L�on Maillard who had worked previously for Cuzin Gruel and Marius Michel. According to "Bound to Be the Best" the present volume was once owned by Edwin Holden who served as president of the Grolier Club in 1906. It later passed into the collection of the prominent American connoisseur Henry William Poor 1844-1915 who co-founded the firm that became Standard & Poor's. Printed at the Riverside Press unknown
