Description: The complete two-volume set of Pollard's edition of Thomas Malory's Le Morte D'Arthur, with colour illustrations by W. Russell Flint. A two-volume set, the third reprint of this edition printed in the Riccardi Press Books, in the publisher's original cloth bindings, with gilt detailing to the front boards. Top edges gilt. Illustrated with a colour frontispiece and 17 further colour plates to each volume by the Scottish artist Sir William Russell Flint (1880-1969), who worked for The Illustrated London News as well as illustrating several books. Collated, complete. Thomas Malory's tale of adventure and conquest, describing the life of King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table. Since the 19th century, many authors have used Malory's text for inspiration. This text went on to inspire T. H. White's Sword In the Stone. This work was edited with an introduction by Alfred William Pollard (1859-1944), an English bibliographer, well-known for his scholarly Shakespeare criticism. In the publisher's original cloth bindings. Externally sound though faded with shelfwear, particularly to the spines. Gilt remains bright to the front boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright with spotting to the first and last few pages, and to the fore edge, affecting the occasional page. Good
