W.H. DAVIES: A BIBLIOGRAPHY.
Harlow, Sylvia
First edition. The third volume in the Winchester Bibliographies of Twentieth Century Writers series. W.H. Davies is best remembered as the author of THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A SUPER-TRAMP first published in 1908, and still in print, but his reputation is based on his poetry which was published in over fifty books and has appeared continuously in anthologies ever since. This bibliography provides the opportunity for a comprehensive study of this important twentieth-century writer, and it will also be a vital guide to collectors of his work. The sections cover Books, Anthologies edited by Davies and those containing his work, Articles, Broadcasts by and about Davies, and Articles and Books about him. The book also contains a Chronology and Index. Illustrated.

L' AUTOGRAPHE.
by De Villemessant, H. and G. Bourdin (editors)
This book contains the first 47 issues of this French periodical which was devoted to autographs. It consists primarily of facsimiles of various handwritten documents (usually signed) from the hands of famous individuals, along with running editorial commentary. The autographs are mostly from such French celebrities as Napoleon, Alexander Dumas, and Voltaire, but also include examples from individuals of other nationalities, for example, Charles Dickens and Hector Berlioz. Artist-signed drawings are also represented, including works by Da Vinci, Boucher, Delacroix, and others. The title page and some of the images are printed in two colors. The cover of this copy shows moderate wear and soiling. The edges of the leaves are stained in some places and most have darkened toward the edges. Some leaves have been repaired and some have minor foxing.
