They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage cost.

The first three (of four?) issues of The Cocoon, a short-lived Cambridge University literary magazine edited by V.W.W.S. Purcell. 4to., 3 vols in original printed wrappers. Edges a little rubbed, ink staining to lower wrapper of issue 1, otherwise a very good set of the first three issues of the magazine (March, May and December 1920). Amongst a largely unmemorable selection of contributors there are poems submitted by Edward Davison, Rosamund Lehmann and Gerald Bullett. More interesting is an article entitled 'In Defence of Sentiment' by Lance de Giberne Sieveking in issue 2. In our copy of this issue Sieveking has added a manuscript note at the end of the article, "Re-read for the first time, January 25 1964 forty three years after writing. How vey very silly I was! I hope this is the only copy extant! LdeGS.".

FIRST AMERICAN EDITION, frontispiece map by Edward Bawden, tiniest of nicks to leading edge of first few leaves, pp. 340, crown 8vo, original orange cloth, lettered in black to backstrip and upper board, edges roughtrimmed, ownership inscription to flyleaf, dustjacket with designs to front and backstrip panels by Edward Bawden, a couple of tiny nicks around head, the backstrip panel gently browned, very good. Early work by Edward Bawden, in the year of his graduation from the Royal College of Art; a wonderful design. For the UK edition, the frontispiece map was used on the endpapers. Sieveking seems to have been well-served by a uniquely talented generation of artists - other of his work carried designs by Paul and John Nash. The present work is a complex story (a contemporary review in The Spectator considered it rather overcrowded with ideas) of the near-future, where the availability of commercial transatlantic flight (fascination with air travel was a legacy of Sieveking's War service) leads to the discovery of the lost Atlantis in a group of islands within a gigantic whirlpool.
