Description
London: Edward Blount, 1620. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. First edition in English and first translated edition. Volume 1 printed for Edward Blount, nd (second issue of first edition), engraved title in facsimile. Volume 2, 1620, the genuine engraved title and printed title. 4to, Riviere binding in full polished crimson levant, fully gilt. With the baronial bookplate of the Earl of Carysfort, Elton Hall, 1894. Both volumes have hand-printed marginalia and annotations, in the most peculiar miniature and precise form and with links in red ink among letters and words in text, which appear to be the handiwork of a Baconian conspiracist. Provenance: From the heirs of John D. Wells (1878 -1932) who, as a young reporter covering the visit of President McKinley to the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901, composed the only eye-witness account of the assassination attempt of the President that proved fatal. Wells went on to become editor of the Buffalo Courier and then Buffalo Express. According to his great-grandsons, family lore has it that Wells took up the Baconian hobby of finding "codes" in literary works sometime in his later years.

He began his working years as an advertising copy-writer, but soon turned to fiction writing. He joined the U.S. Navy in 1917 and worked as an editor and writer for The Broadside, a newspaper for enlisted men. His stories about an inept serviceman, Biltmore Oswald, became wildly popular among the magazine's readers. After the war, he moved to Greenwich Village, where he became friends with writers such as Sinclair Lewis and had a brief affair with Dorothy Parker. He continued to work in advertising while trying to succeed as a poet. After marrying in 1919, he and his wife frequently visited the experimental community of Free Acres in nearby New Jersey. In 1926, he achieved sudden literary stardom when his comic supernatural novel Topper was published to great success." (Harry Ransom Center). HBS 69395. $1,350.
