Shaw-Ede. T.E. Lawrence's letters to H.S. Ede. 1927 - 1935.

£2,250 · Offered by Maggs Bros Ltd

Spine just faded, but otherwise a fine copy of the rare special issue, with well printed collotype facsimiles of five of the letters bound in at the rear. A delightful tribute to Lawrence from the art collector and curator Jim Ede whose acquaintance with Lawrence began with sight of a copy of the Subscribers’ Edition “I had been aghast that so ugly a book should be produced” and developed into a deep epistolary friendship.
