Portrait frontispiece of David Jones, wood-engraving of the title-page of "Morte Darthur" and 206 illustrations (three engraved by Eric Gill from the blocks designed by David Jones). Two volumes. Sm. folio, publisher's original quarter tan morocco, green cloth sides with "David Jones" device in gilt on upper cover, spine with green morocco and gilt labels, t.e.g., others uncut, the portfolio is contained in a uniformly bound clamshell box of tan and green cloth with green morocco spine labels, both volumes housed in a green cloth covered slipcase. London, Clover Hill Editions, 1981.
Fine, spines very slightly faded and lightly rubbed.
Douglas Cleverdon's fine survey of David Jones' engravings is unlikely ever to be bettered, and save for the six vellum copies issued, it is hard to imagine them ever being presented in a finer form.
