GILL, Eric. Sculpture: An Essay By Eric Gill. Reprinted from "The Highway" June A.D. 1917. Douglas Pepler, Ditchling, 1918.

Price: US$220.00 + shipping

Description: Slim octavo; buff printed wrappers; 21pp + 4pp publisher's ads. Covers trimmed short (see note below); mild wear and creasing to wrapper edges, still Very Good or better. Apparently a mixed issue: covers are Gill's third variant (without the crossed-out price), but title page (rules) and pagination (p.5) conform to the earlier state. Since the wrappers on our copy are undersized by about 1/4", it seems plausible that this copy may have been made up using a remainder of the earliest state of the text with the later issue wrappers. Scarce Gill item; GILL Bibliography 5.
