Quartette.

1885rif. 155839Lahore: 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.

Tout commence en 1919 pour beaucoup la révolution apportée par les Editions MORNAY fut l'utilisation systématique de l'illustration pour les ouvrages édités par cette maison.Il faut savoir que jusqu'alors l'illustration était réservée aux editions dites "de Luxe" qualificatif qui indiquait à la fois un soin tout particulier apporté à l'édition à la composition mais aussi un prix élevé qui ne permettait pas à tous d'acquerir ces ouvrages et les réservés ainsi aux classes les plus aisées de la société.En ce début de XXeme siécle un certain nombre de maison d'édition se lancérent sur le créneau de ce que l'on appela le livre de "demi-luxe" eut égard aux prix plus modéré pratiqué pour ces ouvrages. Ouvrages qui pour autant permettaient de découvrir des auteurs de tout premier ordre et étaient imprimé avec une attention toute particuliére sur des velins de qualité. Pour autant les illustrations n'étaient qu'exception dans ce genre d'edition.Antoinette et Georges MORNAY ont pensés une organisation qui allait bien au-delà de ce "coté visible de l'iceberg" que fut le recours permanent aux illustrateurs. Leur concept de maison d'edition etait global et trés "marketing" dirions nous aujourd'hui :- Prix de vente trés bas augmentant néanmoins au fil des années avec le succés mais qui n'acceptait aucun compris tant sur la qualité de l'impression papier gravure etc. que sur le choix des auteurs et des illustrateurs .- Création d'un Service de Presse qui par les livres offert aux journalistes donna aux Editions MORNAY une publicité non négligeable.- Campagne de publicité pouvant être de grande envergure Article de Maurice CONSTANTIN-MEYER sur Maria Chapdelaine dans l'Illustration de NOEL 1931De tout cela il nous reste aujourd'hui un formidable ensemble de textes et d'auteurs comprenant 112 ouvrages edités de 1919 à 1935 qui retrace l'évolutions de ces editions du livre illustré moderne : des bois gravé en noir jusqu'aux aquarelles au pochoir. Paris: Editions Mornay, 1919-1935. paperback

Sixteen Illustrations of Subjects from Kipling's "Jungle Book".

1903rif. 154195London: Macmillan & Co. Limited 1903. Magnificent illustrations for Kipling's classic and considered by some to be the finest book illustrations ever published First edition sole impression. Macmillan issued this sumptuous portfolio at five guineas advertising the illustrations as reproductions "in colour from the Original Drawings in the highest style of Lithography". The 16 watercolours had been exhibited at the Dutch Gallery in London and were subsequently incorporated in reduced format into Macmillan's 1908 edition of The Jungle Book. The illustrations rank among the Detmold brothers' most celebrated work. A modern study of British book illustration describes the series as a "masterpiece of Edwardian era" singling out Shere Khan in the Jungle for its synthesis of Japanese pictorial influence anatomical observation and elaborate detail. Quoting Rodney Engen's study of the golden age of illustration it notes how the brothers' understanding of nature enabled them to create the "mythology and harshness of the natural world". Folio. 16 coloured chromolithograph prints on thin card sheet sizes: 330 × 430 mm tipped onto white board with grey window mounts mount sizes: 393 × 545 mm with cover sheet to each illustration providing the title and a short extract from the book.

The Sussex Edition of the Complete Works in Prose and Verse of Rudyard Kipling. 35 volumes Complete Set

1937rif. BIBLIO-52449Macmillan and Co. Ltd London Sussex Edition 1937-39. Limited edition of 525 sets of which 500 signed by the author were for sale. However many of these were destroyed when the publisher's warehouse was bombed in 1941. 35 vols royal 8vo full russet Niger morocco handmade paper top edges rough-gilded other edges untrimmed. several thousand pages. The Sussex edition is the definitive edition of Kipling's works splendidly produced and much sought after by collectors. Some contemporary Macmillan advertising material described it thus: "The Sussex Edition had been planned some years before the author's death and was designed to rank as the definitive edition of all his works in prose and verse in the most complete and handsome form. Kipling had undertaken a detailed revision of the text for this purpose and had autographed and numbered the first volume of each set. He left behind him careful instructions regarding the unpublished or uncollected writings which are so conspicuous and interesting a feature of the Sussex Edition. This material includes over sixty stories articles and speeches besides such groups of papers as The War in the Mountains Eyes of Asia and Brazilian Sketches none of them previously published in book form if at all in this country and the whole of his early or uncollected verse." From a contemporary review in the TLS: "The publishers are justified in the use of the epithet "superb" to describe this edition. The fine hand-made paper and Bembo type are equally satisfactory : but perhaps the binding is still more notable. It is . Niger leather lettered and simply ornamented in gold. The volumes though ten inches by six and three quarter inches in size are comparatively slim and so easy to hold; and they have an air of durability and of being meant for reading as well as for keeping which is not always the case with éditions de luxe. Set No.215. Armorial bookplate on the front pastedown endpaper of each volume: 'Ex Libris des Comtes Arrivabene Valenti-Gonzaga'. Spines rubbed and several volumes with some corner or edge-wear or small scrapes to the leather three volumes 5 6 7 with blotches to the spine sometimes extending slightly to the boards; otherwise a good set with good uniformity of colour not always the case with this edition. Internally excellent - clean fresh copies with most volumes unopened or largely so. Macmillan and Co. Ltd, London, Sussex Edition, 1937-39 hardcover
