Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. A fine start on a collection of various (and variant) editions of Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, most being in no worse than Very Good condition, one in Good condition, some being Near Fine, with special issues and flaws noticed below. The subject and author of the dozen (12) tomes comprising the coll…ection, Omar Khayyam (or Khayyami) was born, likely at Nishapur, in the Persian northeast, somewhere in the 11th century from 1025-1050 A.D. His surname Khayyam means "tent-maker" in Persian. The bibliography consulted is Ambrose G. Potter, A Bibliography Of The Rubaiyat Of Omar Khayyam Together With Kindred Matter In Prose And Verse Pertaining Thereto, published by Ingpen and Grant, London, 1929. The collection is comprised of the following: 1) RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM. (London: Bernard Quaritch, 1872), measuring 218 x 163 mm. (8 5/5" x 6 1/2"). Third Edition.

Minor defects in the form of slight scuffing to tips, spine head and foot, else Near Fine. [3], 4-77 [1] pp.; 3) RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM. (Boston: L.C. Page and Company; London: Macmillan and Company, 1898), measuring 210 x 145 mm. (8 1/4" x 5 3/4"), an edition complete in two volumes. Edited by Nathan Haskell Dole. Multi-Variorum Edition.

Eight illustrations by multiple artists. This edition, "Edward Fitzgerald's Version," so-called for comparing "English, French, German, Italian, and Danish translations" to Fitzgerald's version. Dust jacket spines a bit sunned, otherwise a beautiful copy of the first trade edition of "the first extensive scientific edition," and thus itself a collectible. Volume I: clxxvii, [3], 3-203 pp.; Volume II consists wholly of appendixes, indexes, another nine fine illustrations; frontis matter, 210-655 pp.; 4) THE RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM.

The previous owner obtained these in a larger co…llection of 300 such unique edition exemplars. The lot is comprised of: 1) BRANGWYN, FRANK, Illustrator. RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM. (London, England and Edinburgh, Scotland: T. N. Foulis, 1911), measuring 175 x 145 mm. (6 7/8" x 5 5/8"). Bound in publisher's original vellum with gilt titling to front cover and spine, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. Eight tipped-in color illustrations by Frank Brangwyn and lovely frontispiece. Slightly bowed boards and very minor soiling thereto, else nearly Fine condition. Uncommonly seen in vellum. 127 pp. and with a page of publisher's additional titles; 2) BULL, RENE, Illustrator.

Nyburg bookplate inside front flap, leading to some shadowing opposite, foxing at endpapers front and rear, protected now in stiff Mylar jacket, light scuffing to tips, edges. Interior is easily Near Fine and features elaborate heads and tails, initials and the like; truly a gorgeous volume. Unpaginated, but like 160 pp. or thereabouts; 3) CARR, HAMZEH, Illustrator. THE RUBAIYAT OF UMAR KHAIYAM. (London: John Lane the Bodley Head Limited, 1924), measuring 257 x 180 mm. (10 1/8" x 7"). Translated from the French of J.B. Nicolas by Frederick Baron Corvo, and edited by Edward Heron-Allen.

Printed with facing French text. Interior volume bright, clean, neat, and attractive. Frontis matter, 193 pp.; 4) DODSON, BERT, Illustrator. SELECTIONS FROM OMAR KHAYYAM'S RUBAIYAT: A PORTFOLIO OF DRAWINGS BY BERT DODSON. (Norwalk, Connecticut: Fairfield Graphics Incorporated, n.d.) 458 x 330 mm. (18 x 13"). Not signed, but probably one of 700 copies printed thus. An unusual item indeed, with 39 numbered plates housed in a folding, envelope-like portfolio with embossed title. An additional 19 black-ink drawings by the illustrator, quite evocative, that augment the printed quatrains. An unusually clean assemblage (though the portfolio is a big soiled and grubby). The illustrations are nearly line-drawings but tilt and totter between Art Deco and Surrealist of appears. The artist, Bert Dodson (born, 1938), illustrated several score children's books, too--at least 80 to 2019; 5) DULAC, EDMUND, Illustrator. RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM. (London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1909, printed for the publisher by T. and N. Constable, from Edinburgh University Press), measuring 285 x 225 mm. (11 1/4" x 8 7/8").

Bound in white cloth over boards and with elaborate gilt decorations and gilt lettering to front cover and spine. Fine, colorful bookplate of Mae Borg at third free endpaper. Decorated endpapers front and rear. Slight forward cock to spine, light scuffing to tips and edges, spine head and foot. Slight soiling to white cloth (as is inevitable), but interior is bright and fre.
