COBURN, Alvin Langdon

Men of Mark

London / New York: Duckworth & Co. / Mitchell Kennerley, 1913. First Edition. Quarto. With 33 tipped-in tissue-guarded photogravures of various famous artists and writers, including George Bernard Shaw, Henri Matisse, Mark Twain, William Butler Yeats, and H.G. Wells, among many others. Coburn oversaw the pulling of the gravures himself. Corners a little bumped, endpapers and tissue-guards toned, otherwise a fresh, near fine copy in a nice example of the rare dust jacket, complete and unrestored, with a few small edge tears.
