Publication details: Leonard & Virginia Woolf at The Hogarth Press,1931,
Rare Book
A notable association copy, given by Saxon Sydney-Turner - a friend of Leonard Woolf's from Cambridge and one of the founding members of what became known as the Bloomsbury Group - to his partner Barbara Bagenal (ne Hiles); both of them were friends of the author - Hiles having helped the Woolfs with printing Mansfield's 'Prelude' before her marriage to Nicholas Bagenal (a development that perhaps modified but did not curtail her relationship with Sydney-Turner). The ownership inscription is identifiably in the hand of the giver rather than the recipient.
1931, pp. 325, crown 8vo, original purple cloth, the backstrip lettered in gilt and faded with some wear at ends and a mark at foot, wear to lower joint also, lean to spine, rubbed to edges, the flyleaf with contemporary ownership inscription of Barbara Bagenal (but in the hand of Saxon Sydney-Turner, and her pencil ex dono inscription, 'from S.S-T.' below), Gerald Bullett's contemporary review laid in, fair
