Thomas à Kempis: Of the Imitation of Christ, in four books by Thomas A. Kempis.
London, 1898. Kegan Paul, Trench Trübner & Co. Ltd. (Chiswick Press). [4] + XII + 324 + [2] p. + 4 t.
Kolofon: „Limited to six hundred and sixty copies for England and America. […] This edition of the „Imitation of Christ” is printed on Arnold and Foster’s unbleached handmade paper. The illustrations and title-page have been designed by Mr. Laurence Housman, and engraved upon wood by Miss Clemence Housman.”
Korabeli, díszesen aranyozott, álbordás, barna egészbőr kötésben, felül aranyozott lapszélekkel, az első kötéstáblán aranyozott növényi motívumokkal övezett, enyhén kopott képpel. Dekoratív, részben felvágatlan, nagyon szép példány.
