"The text of the present edition of Spenser's Works has been prepared by Professor W.L. Renwick. It follows in every case the first editions.The decorations have been designed and engraved on wood by Hilda Quick those in The Shepheardes Calender being based on the cuts in the original editions. The initial letters and the letterings for the title- page and headings have been engraved by her from designs by Joscelyne Gaskin.The eight volumes of Spenser 1930 are equally good-different as the character of the author is but in merita nothing to choose between them. Perhaps the small devices below Spenser's sonnets printed in black and in the vellum copies beautifully laid with gold are the most discreet and opulent form of decoration fitting and in flawless taste" Franklin.

1679rif. 75349London: Henry Hills for Jonathan Edwin at the Three Roses in Ludgate-Street 1679. Full Leather. Very Good. 33 x 21 cm. Folio. 10 339 1 16 8 258 i.e. 254 1 369-391 1 pp. Engraved frontispiece of Spencer's tomb signed R. White sculp. Older full leather binding 5 raised bands to spine leather spine label. Title page printed in red and black. Licensed October 24th 1678 by Roger L'Estrange. Confusing pagination with several miss-numbered pages. Several seperate title pages for various works dated 1678. Editorship has been attributed to Dryden but likely erroneously according the Johnson bibliography. The spine has been professionally rebacked and covers reattached preserving much of the original spine. There is evidence of a fairly clean bookplate removal to front fixed endpaper and a name has been effaced from the title page. Small chip out of one edge of the frontispiece which does not effect the illustration. This has been repaired/reinforced nicely with tissue paper. Scuffing to the leather. A lovely early edition of Spenser's collected works. References: ESTC R7177. Johnson A critical bibliography of the works of Edmund Spenser #21. OCLC 889640961.
