A.E. Richardson & others

The Old Inns of England.

London: Batsford, 1942. Fourth Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition / Very Good Condition. Item #521442

The Batsford books of the 1930s-1950s occupy a sweet spot between reference work and decorative object. Their appeal now lies as much in the vibrant dustwrappers - modernist in spirit, pastoral in subject - as in the texts themselves. Together the book and wrapper form a coherent, collectible aesthetic: bright, optimistic, and unmistakably of their period, yet still wonderfully contemporary. 118 pages, several plates, coloured frontis. Original red cloth, black lettered. With a slightly rubbed dustwrapper. Preserved in removable plastic. Size: 15 x 23 cms.
