Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. One of 300 paper copies. There were also eight vellum copies. This is one of the most desirable books to be printed at perhaps the most influential and famous of all private presses. A total of 52 books were produced during the several years it was active. In his definitive history of the Kelmscott Press, William Peterson describes this as "the penultimate book printed at the Kelmscott Press and an interesting example of how Cockerell (Sydney, who was the second Secretary of the Press.) was compelled to solve book-design difficulties on his own, as no work had been done before October 1896" (Morris died on October 3 of that year). Peterson continues to write that while the last books printed by the Kelmscott Press did not display a dramatic falling off of quality, they represent a reversion to the simpler of ornamentation of the very earliest Kelmscott books. For this edition, Burne-Jones redrew the full-page woodcut he originally prepared for the earlier print edition about 25 years prior. Frontispiece and full-page woodcut by W. H. Hooper after Edward Burne-Jones, decorative woodcut border to frontispiece and facing first page of contents, further woodcut borders in the text, three-, six-, and eight-line woodcut initials. Text printed in blue, red, and black in Troy type, stage directions mostly in Chaucer type. In the original limp vellum with yapp edges. The spine has title lettered in gilt. All six of the green silk ties are present. Light soiling to spine and covers and covers are a bit splayed. Interior pages are in beautiful condition. Housed in a custom box wiith dark green spine and page edges, with titling and press name in gilt to spine.

The Kelmscott Chaucer remains "not only the most important of the Kelmscott Press's productions; it is also one of the great books of the world.its splendor can hardly be matched" (Ray). The original Kelmscott edition of 1896 was issued in just 425 paper copies and 13 on vellum, and stands as the supreme achievement of the private press movement - an ideal synthesis of typography, illustration, and bookbinding. The present Folio Society facsimile, executed with exceptional fidelity in materials and craftsmanship, is widely regarded as the finest modern recreation of Morris's masterpiece, preserving both its monumental scale and its tactile richness. A magnificent production - arguably the closest one can come to owning the Kelmscott Chaucer itself without entering six-figure territory.
