Publication details: Leonard & Virginia Woolf at The Hogarth Press,1937,
Rare Book
The copy of artist Barbara Bagenal (ne Hiles), a friend of Carrington from the Slade who assisted the Woolfs with their early printing and forged various relationships within the group - including with Saxon Sydney-Turner, who gave her this copy, a figure of legendary intelligence (one of the only solvers of the fiendish mystery 'Cain's Jawbone') though often a target of affectionate ridicule in Woolf's diary and letters.
1937, pp. [iv], 472, crown 8vo, original green cloth, backstrip lettered in gilt, a little rubbing to extremities, the edges toned and endpapers faintly spotted, clipped review (The Times) laid in, the flyleaf with contemporary ownership inscription of Barbara Bagenal (ex dono 'S.S-T.', i.e. Saxon Sydney-Turner, see below), dustjacket with a design by Vanessa Bell, a little chipped and soiled with browned backstrip panel, very good
