One of 425 copies. One of 425 copies, printed at the Cuala Press, with the date misprinted as 'MCMXXVIV' on the title page (as noted by Wade).
The Cuala Press originally started out as the Dun Emer Press in 1903, founded by Evelyn Gleeson. Influenced by the Gaelic revival occurring in Ireland, it promoted Ireland's cultural heritage, while at the same time training women to work in a useful trade. Eventually the two sisters of W.B. Yeats took over the press, continuing Gleeson's work, and renaming it The Cuala Press in 1908.
First edition, one of 425 copies; 8vo; publisher's device to title, minor offsetting to endpapers, else unmarked internally, partly unopened; publisher's cloth-backed blue boards, paper label to spine printed in black, black lettering to upper cover, blue endpapers, spine and extremities slightly toned, else very good.
