Price: US$97.47 + shipping

Condition: Very Good

Description: A very good copy in the original decorative cloth binding with 22 tipped-in colour plates and numerous black and white illustrations and designs by Hugh Thomson. Undated but 1913 1st trade edition. Quality Street was one of a series of works commissioned for the high quality Christmas present market. Hugh Thomson was mainly known for his black and white illustrations, for example for Pride and Prejudice, but his colour-tinted works proved very popular, and Quality Street followed Merry Wives of Windsor, School for Scandal, and She Stoops to Conquer. They featured beautiful decorative bindings, colour plates and delicate designs. This copy has a near fine binding, with clear bright gilt design to the front board. The spine is duller, but only slightly pulled, and the back board is clean with 2 very light pale marks at the top. The textured decorative endpapers are unmarked. With frontispiece, decorative title page, and 21 further plates. Each plate has a decorative tissue-guard. There is some spotting to the half title page and the verso of the frontispiece, with the odd spot to contents and character list, and some spotting on the final page. Elsewhere the contents are very clean and in very good condition. There is occasional light marking in the gutter and the odd spot. A nice copy.

Caesar?:. Like English Gentlemen. To Peter Scott, from the author of ?Where?s Master?. Written anonymously by Sir John Ernest Hodder-Williams. Hodder and Stoughton. 1913 1st., 1913.

Price: US$200.13 + shipping

Description: 7.5 x 5.0 inches. In illustrated hard card covers. Illustrated endpapers. In very good condition. Spine slightly darkened. Handling marks to covers. Edges very slightly rubbed. Slight browning to endpapers. Else a clean and tight copy. 63 pp. A publication hastily produced within a month of the news of Scott's tragic death arriving in the UK. The juvenile tale within sees Kathleen Scott explaining the death of Sir Robert Falcon Scott to their infant son through comparison with the story of Peter Pan. This is an interesting point of reference, as Kathleen would later go on to become close friends with the J. M. Barrie and his wife, eventually purchasing their Bayswater home. A highly sentimental work, it gives a sense of the depth of feeling expressed by the British public when faced with this national loss. The dedication: "To Peter's Mother This little wreath for the snow grave of Her Hero." The final page solicits donations to the Daily Chronicle fund set up to support Scott's dependants. Written anonymously by Sir John Ernest Hodder-Williams.

Description: A School for Genteel Children In The Publishers Box [THOMSON, Hugh, illustrator]. BARRIE, J.M. Quality Street. A Comedy in Four Acts. Illustrated by Hugh Thomson. [London]: Hodder & Stoughton, [n.d., 1913]. First trade edition. Large quarto (10 3/8 x 7 7/8 inches; 263 x 200 mm.). [2], vii, [1], 197, [2], [1, blank] pp. Frontispiece and twenty-one mounted color plates, with descriptive tissue guards. Numerous black and white text illustrations. Publishers violet cloth over boards, front cover and spine pictorially stamped and lettered in gilt and green. Pictorial endpapers. Light foxing on half-title, ink signature on front free endpaper. A fine copy in the original cardboard box with a duplicate of the color plate facing page 3, pasted on top. Box strengthened at corners. Hugh Thomson was born in County Coleraine near Londonderry, on 1 June 1860. He gained praise and influenced many young artists through his book illustrations. He notably illustrated editions of William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens and J.M. Barrie. Quality Street is a comedy in four acts by J. M. Barrie, written before his more famous work Peter Pan. The story, set in Napoleonic times, is about two sisters who start a school "for genteel children". "The important commission for. Quality Street by J.M. Barrie, and in November [1910] the cover design and title-page were "under weigh". Early in December came a note from the eminent author to the artist asking him to lunch in order that they might "have a talk about the pictures", and a few weeks later the first drawings were done, Sending them on to his intermediaries, Hugh wrote that he took it for granted that Barrie would formally pass them even if they are not all he would like them to be. I don't see how an author ever can like illustrations of his work which must be so different to his own mental pictures. A surprise awaited him, however, for the drawings drew from Barrie a pleasant and welcome tribute: The pictures are quite delightful. I love to think such work is done for a play of mine, and am quite sure Quality Street could not have found such another illustrator in broad England. My criticism is that Phoebe as the schoolmistresss looks too young. I like you the better for this, and am in the plot with you. So don't you go and alter. I hope you will soon be better. Phoebe and Susan ought to give you some of the nice things sent to Miss Livvy. "I am very happy of you", as they would say." (Spielmann and Jerrold. Hugh Thomson. pp. 181-182).

Best known for introducing the world to Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, and the magical world of Neverland, he was also actively engaged in the theatrical world. Moving amid a wide circle of luminaries including George Meredith, Robert Louis Stevenson, and George Bernard Shaw, it was ultimately Llewelyn Davies and his family who influenced Barrie's works the most.
