Lot Description
WOOLF, Virginia (1882-1941). Kew Gardens. Richmond: Hogarth Press, 1919.
8vo. 2 woodcuts by Vanessa Bell. Original off-white wall-paper wrappers with floral pattern in pink, green, pale brown, and black, painted on the outside in royal blue, chocolate brown and orange, uncut and unopened, white printed label on front wrapper (some chipping, particularly to bottom edge).
Second edition, one of 500 copies printed one month after the publication of the first edition of 150 copies. Fitzpatrick notes Leonard Woolf's recollection that the wrappers for the second edition were not from Roger Fry's Omega Workshops (as the wrappers of the first edition), but were copies. Fitzpatrick A3b.
