New York, Frederick A. Stokes, [1923]

A near fine copy in dust-jacket of the much rarer American issue of 250 copies, distributed from the 2,000 copies printed in Britain. A number of copies are thought to have been destroyed in a warehouse fire.

British born Timlin studied art and worked as an architect in his adopted country of South Africa. This is his only published work and rivals those of Dulac, Pogany, Nielsen, Rackham, etc., in its originality, appeal and desirability.

First edition, American issue, 4to., 48 colour plates and 48 calligraphic-style text plates all mounted on grey paper, minor offsetting to endpapers, publisher's parchment-backed grey paper covered boards, spine decorated and lettered in gilt, dust-jacket with slight wear and small chips, quarter red morocco folding box.
