READ, Gideon Henry Mackenzie. · 1884 · [Printed for private circulation · 15 pictures

A collection of verse by Gideon Henry Mackenzie Read, printed for private circulation in 1884 and meant for the author's friends rather than the trade. The plates are printer's ornaments and tailpieces in fine stipple-and-line engraving: rose, shamrock and thistle twined on one stem, symmetrical acanthus scrollwork with masks and dolphins, and a sheathed dagger centrepiece, all usable as small spot decorations and section breaks.
