'Paradise Lost' A Fine Extra-Illustrated Edition of the Poems of John Milton Finely Bound Almost Certainly by The Harcourt Bindery of Boston MILTON, John. [The Crown Edition of] The Poets of Great Britain. Extra Illustrated Copy of the Aldine Edition of the British Poets. New York and London: Chiwick Press:- Charles Whittingham and Co, [1900]. Two small octavo volumes (6 1/2 x 4 inches; 165 x 102 mm.). [i]-lxiv, [1]-337, [1, imprimateur]; [i]-xvi, [1]-387, [1, blank] pp. Title-pages printed in black and red. With a life of John Milton. Extra-illustrated by the insertion of twelve engraved plates, including four hand-colored, all with tissue-guards. Handsomely bound almost certainly by The Harcourt Bindery ca. 1900, in full red morocco, covers with double gilt border with fancy corner-pieces, enclosing a spray of flowers elaborately stamped in gilt and with green morocco leaf inlays and buff morocco inlaid flowers. Spines with four raised bands decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt in compartments and with three olive green morocco flower inlays. Highly decorative gilt turn-ins surrounding an oval panel of green morocco decorated in gilt with a large central gilt flower with inlaid red morocco flower head, green moire silk end-leaves, all edges gilt. Minimal rubbing to joints, otherwise fine. Although unsigned the binding is almost certainly by The Harcourt Bindery. John Milton (9 December 1608 - 8 November 1674) was an English poet and intellectual who served as a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England under its Council of State and later under Oliver Cromwell. He wrote at a time of religious flux and political upheaval, and is best known for his epic poem Paradise Lost (1667). Written in blank verse, Paradise Lost is widely considered to be one of the greatest works of literature ever written. We believe this to be 1/10 copies specially bound and extra-illustrated. The Harcourt Bindery of Boston has made fine cloth and leather art bindings by hand since 1900. It remains the largest for-profit hand bookbindery in the U.S. When it was founded in 1900, Boston was home to over 47 book binderies and 1,452 craftsmen, according to the company's website. Few large binderies exist today. Before the 1930s, there were about fifteen people working in the Harcourt Bindery; the number fell to five during the Depression, and the company changed hands three times between 1927 and 1931. When binder Sam Ellenport took over Harcourt in 1971, there were only four employees. In 2008, Ellenport sold the Harcourt Bindery to Acme Bookbinding of Boston.

Uniform first Cresset Press edition hard back binding in publisher's original full cream buckram cloth covers, gilt title and author lettering to the spines, deckle page edges. Folio. 14¾'' x 10½''. Matching pair by The Cresset Press Limited Edition numbered copies with hand written number 163 of 195 to each volume on Batchelor's hand-made paper (plus 10 copies on Roman Vellum). The final work printed by The Cresset Press, an independent press from 1927 for 40 years, and initially specialising in expensively illustrated limited editions of classical works, going on to produce well-designed trade editions of literary and political works. Milton's Paradise Lost is thought by many to be its finest work, and printed by Bernard Newdigate at the Shakespeare Head Press. With twenty wood-engravings by Demetrios Galanis (16 full-page, plus head and tail pieces in each volume) and the title-page and initial letters by Anna Simons. From the second edition, revised and augmented by the Author, printed at London by S. Simmons in 1674. Paradise Lost concerns the biblical story of the Fall of Man: the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Milton's purpose, stated in Book I, is to "justify the ways of God to men". Paradise Regained is a poem, first published in 1671, which is connected by name to his earlier and more famous epic poem Paradise Lost, with which it shares similar theological themes; indeed, its title, its use of blank verse, and its progression through Christian history recall the earlier work. However, this effort deals primarily with the temptation of Christ as recounted in the Gospel of Luke. Contains Volume I, (i)-xii, (1)-442, colophon; Volume II, (i-vi), (1)-88, colophon, illustrations throughout the text, limitation statement for each volume at the end of each volume. Both volumes are housed in a matching slipcase and in Fine condition. Heavy volumes 5 kg, extra postage will be requested over and above our default setting for destinations outside the UK.
