OSCAR WILDE
by Raymond, Jean Paul & Charles Ricketts

Dreyfus 81. Limited to an edition of 800. This biographical essay was written by Charles Ricketts and the fictional character he created, Jean Paul Raymond, based on material he had collected from diaries and letters about his friend Oscar Wilde. Ricketts designed Wilde's book of poems, The Sphinx, in 1894 and did other design work for him later on. He also ran the Vale Press, one of the great English private presses, between 1896 and 1904. Ricketts designed the cover of this book, while the typography was designed by Francis Meynell. This is the only book designed by Francis Meynell to be set on a Linotype machine. Introductory note by Thomas Lowinsky. Printed by George W. Jones at the Dolphin Press in Linotype Granjon on Van Gelder paper with a Nonesuch watermark. Unopened. Boards slightly bowed, transfer from dust jacket flaps has tanned a section of the free endpapers, jacket edges very worn with small tears at head and tail edges, some paper loss at corners, 1" x 4 1/2" open tear on jacket of lower board with larger closed tears and creases extending down from there.
