Description: Phantastes: A Faerie Romance By George MacDonald. A New Edition. [Vol. V in Works of Fancy and Imagination] (London, Chatto & Windus, 1896). 14 x 9 cms. 225 pages. In a decorative inlaid binding in Art Nouveau style with doublures, all edges gilt, bookplate of Grace Elizabeth Lawson and a loose note signed by her, "A bit of my work, 70 years ago! And the engraving by my sister Mary". Presumably the binding was Grace's work - it is similar to the style used by the Guild of Women Binders set up by Frank Karslake, although there is no binder's ticket or label and Grace's name does not appear among the women listed as belonging to the Guild. The engraving referred to is presumably of the bookplate, which has a monogram and the date 1902.
