LONGFELLOW, HENRY WADSWORTH. 1807-1882.
Evangeline ... illuminated by John H Tearle. New York: Merrill & Baker, 1903.
4to. Printed on vellum, Acadian edition, illuminated throughout in watercolor and gilt by John Tearle, the Limitation Leaf noting that no two copies are alike, and signed by the illuminator, Tearle, the publisher Merril and Baker, and the printer de Vinne. Green morocco by H. Jackel & Co. of New York, decorated in gilt with brown and red morocco inlays, spine gilt in six compartments, gilt decorated dentelles, cream morocco doublures with a polychrome portrait of Evangeline, initialed A.Le.B, set inside the front cover. Velvet-lined drop-side cloth box. Very slight rubbing to corners, wear to box.
A very fine illuminated copy of the special LIMITED EDITION of Evangeline, one of 26 copies PRINTED ON VELLUM, and finely bound by Jackel and Co. This copy unlettered on the limitation leaf, and presumed to be outside of the 26 copies, and intended to be a gift. ABPC records just 3 copies of this work at auction in the last 40 years. Longfellow's epic poem, originally published in 1847, is set during the time of the expulsion of Acadians from what is now Canada and parts of Maine during the French and Indian War, hence the Acadian edition.
