Soft cover. Condizione: Good. 1st Edition. 4to. Wrappers. Unpaginated (32pp. mostly printed on rectos only), with the slip tipped in to p.[1]. Fourteen examples of Wadsworth's work, introduced by O. Raymond Drey: 'Now anyone who has followed with an atom of appreciation the development of Wadsworth's art with the brush and pencil will have noticed that interest in the elements of form has always been the principal factor in his scale of values, and since the wood-cut provides the starkest means for dealing with the relationship of masses, actually compelling the artist to adapt his handiwork straitly to this end, its attraction for him becomes obvious.' There were also 30 special copies. A Good, rather spotted example, the boldness of the work able to be appreciated nonetheless, outwardly presenting well in wrappers which, although inevitably rubbed, with short, ineffective splits to the folds and small chips to the corners, as well as some unobtrusive fading and an old, faint pencilled price to the front, are better than usual.
