1919réf. 004965England 1919. Cloth. Near Fine. Lovely meticulously rendered vignette illustrations framing the key letter on each page and on a few pages two vignettes. Oblong 9 by 13 cm. 28 pp. The album opens to a particularly nice pen and ink drawing of a schooner framed with highly decorative foliate baroque ornamentation. The first poem is Kipling's "If" each letter device accompanied by a painting of a different type of sail boat or ship. Ship motives are used again in "Love at Sea" by Swinburne. Another Kipling poem "The Explanation" is enlivened with paintings of colorful expressive fish. In our judgment these are the most charismatic of the illustrations. Other poems include Swinburne's "Rondel" "Before Sunset" "Song" and "Child's Song"; and some verses by Sappho. Other illustrative motives take in dragons flowers and floral daipers butterflies and coasts. The poems are rendered in a neat calligraphic hand and it is very easy to imagine this manuscript as something that might have been published as a gift book. unknown

Armorial bookplate at front pastedown of William George Riddell a descendant of the armigerous Clan Riddell based on the coat of arms. A collection of short stories originally published in 1898 the Day's Work is considered to be one of Kipling's better and most complex aggregations and is the subject of John Coate's recent scholarly treatment "The Day's Work: Kipling and the Idea of Sacrifice" 1997. Among the included stories is one with the title ".007" - though while Kipling certainly is at his adventurous best here that title bears no relation to the Ian Fleming character. Other tales include: The Bridge-Builders A Walking Delegate The Ship that found Herself The Tomb of His Ancestors The Devil and the Deep Sea William the Conqueror - Part I William the Conqueror - Part II .007 The Maltese Cat "Bread Upon the Waters" An Error in the Fourth Dimension My Sunday At Home and the Brushwood Boy.
