Livre Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Decorated red & black half title page. Title printed in red & black. 102 printed pages. 20 duotone plates. Top edges gilt. Foredge uncut. Endpapers in grey, with neat ownership stamps (one on front free endpaper, the other on the rear free endpaper) for "L.B. Goldstein. 92 Brick Lane, London E.1. Chartered Accountants". Red greek revival style head and tail pieces. 15.5 x 23 cm. Original grey cloth. Gilt lettering along spine, somewhat age-toned. Upper cover with gilt lettering on blue cloth panel with embossed gilt border. Bevelled edges. Covers richly patinated with handling. Highly amusing but technically exacting problems of inheritance taxation in 30 various situations, from a Justice of the Peace with a wooden leg, a Pig breeder whose prize sow died shortly after her owner, a man dying from a dog bite and a Curate marrying an heiress. Serious educational & accountancy problems but with a funny and memorable twist in each case. Reed (1860-1933) had been cartoonist for "Punch" for 23 years until 1912. From 1914 he was wearing himself and his pencil out in his country's service ("I was working simultaneously for the "Bystander", the "Passing Show", the "Sunday Times", "Pall Mall Gazette, "Sunday Evening Telegram", the "Evening Standard" and possibly one or two more"). Reed contributed 20 fantastically strong original drawings to this book of law & accountancy, even though he was so bad at personal finances that he once had the pleasure of getting his own back on Lloyd George, then Chancellor of the Exchequer, sending him a slightly mocking "Final Demand" for an unpaid cartoon drawing of the Chancellor. In the mid 1920's, Reed passed into illness & decline and lost his hard-made fortune on medical costs- no need to trouble the Exchequer with Inheritance Tax on his account, ironically. He said in his incomplete autobiography "Had I had the least business instinct I should now have been driving about in the latest model Bentley (and smoking a cigar like Lord Lonsdale's) instead of barking my shins and clinging to the handrail and to the simple faith in the power of a General omnibus to get through the traffic". WorldCat locates just one single copy at the British Library. This is a scarce book & appeals to caricature collector accountants, lawyers & humourists.

Manuscrit / Papier ancien
See the entries for Wynter and Walford in the Oxford DNB. The present letter provides a valuable insight into the position of the man of letters in Victorian periodical publication: according to the ODNB, Walford edited the Gentleman's Magazine in 1866 and strongly objected to the proprietor Joseph Hatton's decision to change the character of that magazine. Walford resigned and started his own Register and Magazine of Biography, but this failed within a year. (In the 1880s, as editor of the Antiquary, Walford would engage in a public dispute with his publisher Elliot Stock, whom he would satirize as Ellicott Skinflint .) In the present letter the people "over the way" would appear to be Bradbury and Evans, publishers of the magazine Once a Week . 5pp, 12mo, on a bifolium, with the fifth page (and signature) cross-written over the first. Addressed to E Walford Esq , with salutation Dear Walford . In fair condition, on lightly aged and creased paper. Folded twice for postage. He begins by clarifying something he said when the two men last met: I have never experienced anything but consideration and courtesy from yourself but the reverse appears to be the system on which the people "over the way" seem to act latterly. The previous rule was to make all payments on the 16th of each month, a very good rule in dealing with the literary cast [sic] , but at present there appears to be no system there but that of delaying payment as long as possible. Then again the people "over the way" neither know how to treat their authors as tradesmen or gentlemen. If as the former they should be punctual in their payments, if as the latter they should be at least civil to them - they do neither. I really think if you will allow me to say, without offence, that the [?] time in payments, say the 16th would ensure to you personally better writers and better papers. The last payment was made to me this month after the paper had appeared. This was going on for two months for the present paper! Messrs Cassells pay their writers as soon as the matter is in proof, without waiting for it to appear. It must be clear to you that a writer in his choice of the two [?] must prefer the liberal Cassell to the vexatious and illiberal B[radbury] & E[vans]. He ends by stressing the importance of getting the people over the way to see the matter in the same light .
