1882réf. List3658Boston Massachusetts: W. A. Evans & Bro 1882. Folio illustrated wraps. Pages detached from each other small chip to corner images and music fine remains good to very good and quite attractive. Good to very good. A visually striking example of Oscar Wilde-related ephemera issued during the height of the writer's American lecture tour of 1882. Though lacking a printed date the title strongly suggests publication in connection with Wilde's appearance at the Boston Music Hall on January 31 1882 where he delivered his lecture "The English Renaissance" as part of his widely publicized tour across the United States. Contemporary accounts describe the event as a notable cultural moment including the presence of Harvard students dressed in exaggerated aesthetic costume who occupied the front rows of the hall reflecting both the fascination with and satirical reception of Wilde's aesthetic persona.1 The lithographic cover prominently depicts a figure carrying an oversized sunflower an image closely associated with Wilde and the broader Aesthetic Movement. Such illustrated sheet music functioned not only as musical publications but also as collectible artifacts capitalizing on the figure of Wilde. Over the course of several months he traveled widely across the United States and Canada delivering lectures on art decoration and cultural taste and quickly became a subject of both admiration and parody in the American press. Although he never returned for a comparable national tour Wilde maintained a lasting connection to American audiences. We know of a variant edition of the Evans imprint with a different illustration as well as a different version published in Boston by Ditson the same year. OCLC 500491189 specifying this edition with the large sunflower illustration locating five copies. 1 "Freshmen at Oscar Wilde's Lecture" The Harvard Crimson February 1 1882. W. A. Evans & Bro unknown

réf. 06456London: T. Werner Laurie 1916. The first and still foundational bibliography of Oscar Wilde MASON Stuart pseud. of Christopher Sclater Millard. WILDE Oscar. Bibliography of Oscar Wilde. With a note by Robert Ross. Illustrated. London: T. Werner Laurie n.d. ca. 1916. Octavo 8 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches; 210 x 133 mm. xxxii 605 3 pp. Numerous facsimiles throughout the text. Bound ca. 1960 in three quarter purple morocco over purple cloth boards ruled in gilt spine with five raised bands tooled and lettered in gilt in compartments marbled endpapers all edges gilt spine faded. Original pink cloth covers bound in at end. The first and still foundational bibliography of Oscar Wilde compiled by his friend and literary defender Christopher Sclater Millard writing under the pseudonym "Stuart Mason." Produced with the close cooperation of Robert Ross Wilde's literary executor this work remains indispensable for collectors scholars and the trade. Millard's bibliography is far more than a mere listing: it provides detailed descriptions of Wilde's books pamphlets periodical contributions and translations along with valuable notes on variants piracies and publication history. Issued at a time when Wilde's reputation was still in recovery following his death in 1900 the book represents an early and important effort to establish a serious scholarly framework for Wilde's oeuvre. Particularly useful are the numerous facsimiles - title-pages wrappers and documents - which give the work practical bibliographical authority and make it a key reference for identifying first editions and priority issues. A cornerstone Wilde reference here in an attractive mid-twentieth-century morocco binding well suited to the collector's shelf. London: T. Werner Laurie, 1916 unknown
