The Grolier Club Twenty-nine East Thirty-second Street, New Pork December 30 to 12th, 1903 n.y. 1963. NOTE Only the dramatic writers whose collected works were published in folio size are represented in this exhibition. If familiar and important names, like those of Marlowe, Webster, Massinger, Ford and Shirley, are missing from the list, it is because the "Workes" of these authors were not issued by publishers or friends in "noble and stately" form. This is the first time, so far as known, that such an exhibition as the present one has been attempted. That a collection, which includes the Folios of Jonson and Shakespeare, should be of rare interest and value is too obvious a fact to need emphasis here. The books are arranged chronologically,except where there are several works by one author, in which cases the later editions follow the first. |
