Author: [Newton, A. Edward. 1864 - 1940]. Spalding, Susan Marr
Title: WINTER ROSES
Description: Philadelphia: A. Edw. Newton & Co, 1888. 1st edition, 2nd issue (green ink on pink paper - Fleck F.7A.1b; Winterich #5). Pink silk moire binding, yellow ribbon tie. Gilt stamped lettering, vertical, to front cover right side. Pink eps. AEG. NB. Both Fleck & Winterich talk of a 'creme colored' binding, to my eye, this one a faint pink [result of aging, or an unrecorded variant?]. 24 ll, printed recto only. 12mo. 7-1/2" x 5-1/2" Newton imprints relatively scarce, with Fleck stating this issue, "less common than the lemon colored version."; this the 5th title to be catalogued by Winterich. Some wear, soiling, staining [note top portion of front cover] & age-toning to boards, which are splayed a bit. Withal, still a VG copy.
