Hand-coloured engraving architectural details in the backgrounds originally folded into four sheets some chipping & edgewear to plate creases some minor repairs to verso small tears to lower fore-edge affecting a few letters a G- copy w/ the colour and images still very bright and crisp. First edition of this very scarce and beautiful fashion Supplement leaf which was laid-in with this Victorian monthly which was comprised of articles on fashion embroidery sewing craft work family reading sheet music and more. The fashions in the top row include day wear and more casual clothing for the well-dressed Victorian girl as well as winter jackets muffs and hats. The second row is devoted to evening gowns and formal wear reflecting the revived return to the bustle the fashionable tight corset which was intended to create a long torso and force an S-shape as well as high collars and chokers reflecting the influence of Alexandra Princess of Wales who hid a scar with these methods. The bottom row encompasses dress coats and evening coats which were long have elaborate hats fur trims and yards of rich fabrics. Each monthly issue would include descriptions of the illustrations and prices for cut-out fashion patterns which could be purchased from the Young Ladies’ Journal. Typically since these were published on fragile paper and often thrown away they have become quite scarce. Edward Harrison], hardcover

1923rif. ST20131London: Methuen & Co 1923. 218 x 138 mm. 8 1/2 x 5 1/2". vii 1 280 pp. ELEGANT DARK BLUE MOROCCO GILT BY BAYNTUN stamp-signed on front turn-in covers with gilt fillet frame stippled volute cornerpieces UPPER COVER WITH LOVELY MINIATURE PORTRAIT of a fashionable lady the painting under glass and surrounded by a gilt-tooled frame raised bands spine compartments with volute frame gilt lettering gilt-framed turn-ins ecru moiré silk endleaves all edges gilt. WITH 21 PLATES OF FASHIONABLE PEOPLE five of these called for one color and 16 EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED seven of these in color one double-page and nine in black & white all with tissue guards. Spine gently sunned to navy blue just a hint of rubbing to joints but still quite a fine copy--clean and fresh internally and with almost no signs of use inside or out. This handsomely illustrated look at the London social scene during the Victorian and Edwardian eras and after the Great War comes in a suitably chic binding by the last Victorian bindery still in family hands. Author Ralph Nevill 1865-1933 was a denizen of the world he writes about being the son of one of the leading hostesses of the day Lady Dorothy Walpole Nevill 1826-1913; DNB notes that "family tradition" held that Ralph's father was her close friend Benjamin Disraeli Lord Beaconsfield. Nevill has a wide array of insider anecdotes to share about country house life the pleasures of London society and prominent politicians and journalists. He makes it clear that the Victorian era was preferable to the 20th century and nothing is more drab that the post-war world. The illustrations feature portraits of prominent men landscapes of stately homes and scenes from the balls operas and royal occasions that made up the London Season. The very pretty binding is in the Cosway style made popular by bookseller Henry Sotheran and the Riviere bindery characterized by a miniature painting set under glass on the covers or doublures. Our binding was done by the venerable English firm founded in Bath by George Bayntun in 1894. Among the great English workshops of the Edwardian "golden age" of lavish bindings Bayntun has the distinction of being the only one located outside London's West End to be sought after by bibliophiles. Bayntun was a worthy rival to the likes of Sangorski & Sutcliffe and Riviere & Son the latter being subsumed by Bayntun in 1939. Bayntun of Bath continues to create fine hand bindings for bibliophiles. Unusually the miniature painting in our binding is signed by the artist but we were unable to decipher the signature and the Bayntun bindery did not have any information about the painter's identity.

First edition of this remarkably rare and beloved children’s book surrounding the mystery and treasurer hunt for a 19th-century fashion doll in Peterborough NH by a young girl hidden by her ancestor in a secret room. Fashion dolls also called Queen Anne Dolls were often made of wood plaster or bisque with a fashionable hairstyle in flax or wool and dressed in miniature clothes showcasing the latest couture of the day. The most desirable dolls in the 19th-century were the French bisque dolls distributed all over Europe and were originally modeled on teen girls or adult women although these eventually changed over into child like bisque doll babies which would dominate the market from the 1860s onward. Bannon 1895-1963 was inspired to write this work while staying at the famed MacDowell Art Colony in Peterborough NH which carried a legend of a secret room in the MacDowell farmhouse. Original copies of this work have become quite scarce especially first editions. Houghton Mifflin Co., hardcover
