Seller: BATTLEDORE LTD

Title: PHANTASMION.
Author: Coleridge Sara
Seller: BATTLEDORE LTD (United States)
Description: [COLERIDGE, Sara]. PHANTASMION. London: William Pickering, 1837. 8vo, [iv], 387pp; publisher's green cloth with original printed paper label on upper spine (soiled, edges scuffed), small section cut out at top of half-title to excise name of previous owner. It is especially rare to still be in its publisher's binding and with its printed paper label. First edition. Limited to 250 copies. This is the major contribution by Samuel Coleridge's daughter and is a rare precursor of the journey-to-faeryland that characterized the structure and content of the quest motif in nineteenth and twentieth century fantastic literature. Besides the intricacies of plot, character, and genealogy, PHANTASMION has a theme in common with Tolkien's works: the virtues of pastoralism and the disruptive force of industrialism." - Survey of Modern Fantasy Literature III, pp. 1238-40. It appears to be modeled on Edmund Spenser's THE FAERIE QUEEN (1590; 1596), the "first fairy tale novel written in English." - Clute and Grant (eds), The Encyclopedia of Fantasy, p. 210. Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 2-28. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 391. Locke, A Spectrum of Fantasy, p. 55. Bleiler (1978), p. 46. Reginald 03174. Wolff 1316. Keynes, p. 60.

Seller: Schulson Autographs

Title: PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM, "English Celebrities of the Nineteenth Century." London, Hughes and Edmonds, 1876
Seller: Schulson Autographs (United States)
Description: Part I offered here includes five albumen prints mounted to boards, of "Orators, Statesmen, Authors, Novelists, Artists, Philosophers.".Each of the five mounted photographs is preceded by a protective sheet of tissue paper in tact though wrinkled. The five photographs show a group of luminaries in the following fields: "Politicians Conservative," "Politicians Liberal," "Authors and Novelists," including Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Thomas Carlyle, "Science," including Charles Wheatstone, Michael Faraday, "Artists" including J. M. W. Turner, John Everett Millais, and Edwin Landseer. The page preceding the last group photograph of English Artists indicated that a second volume was anticipated "early in 1877." The artists' page has separated from the spine as has the first copyright page which is chipped along margins, creased and missing upper left corner. The pages are securely held together at the spine even though they have lost their cover. The albumen plates are somewhat light as might be expected. Various degrees of foxing throughout, chipped corners of the photographic boards. Overall condition is fair to good. A fascinating assemblage of 19th century English culture.
