What Our Customers Say...
Description
Leather Binding
Offering two miniature editions of these Shakespearean plays.
Carefully edited and compared with the best texts by J. Talfourd Blair.
Undated, dated from identical copies held institutionally.
Both with frontispiece illustrations.
'Titus Adronicus' was published by David Bryce and Son, who are known as being one of the most prolific and successful producers of miniatures in the world. As well as their famous edition of William Shakespeare's complete works, they have published the smallest English dictionary in the world, the complete Holy Bible, and a miniature Quran.
'Macbeth' was published by Andersons, Edinburgh, Limited, known for printing books, calendars, and cards, but were also known to be “specialists in fancy goods and tartans”.
