Sign In to see what this sold for

Rutter (Owen) We Happy Few: an anthology,
number 12 of 100 specially-bound copies, from an edition limited to 750, wood-engraved illustrations by John O'Connor, original red and blue half morocco over pictorial cloth, gilt, t.e.g., others uncut, spine very slightly faded, cloth slip-case, [Cockalorum 171], 8vo, Golden Cockerel Press, 1946.

***"The splendid engravings are by 'Flying-Officer' John O'Connor. They were all made in camp on active service, and came to me precariously by field post. The binding of the 'specials' in red, white and blue...seemed to me one of my more than usually successful experiments." Cockalorum.
