Contact seller5-star sellerNo edition/printing statement provided. 511 pages. Hardcover: H 19cm x L 21.75cm. Dust jacket with large losses to front panel and spine ends; other lesser chips, jagged tears, and creasing; some toning to flaps; front flap's bottom corner is clipped; dj presented in a mylar Brodart protector. Paper boards; small losses to spine… ends with heel also bumped; glue repairs to surface paper tearing along front and rear joints; slender wear to boards' top and bottom edges. Text block edges toned with several stains. Personal bookplates of two different owners on front endpapers; toning to pages 100-101 from removed newspaper clipping; paper clip impressions at tops of pages 362-363, 404-405, and 428-429. Binding is firm. Page 511 notes that the publishers of the Looking Glass Library are Jason Epstein, Clelia Carroll, and Edward Gorey with consulting editors being W.H. Auden, Phyllis McGinley, and Edmund Wilson. Book's spine heel notes "LGL | 14" with page 511 listing fifteen books in the series (but citing "The Looking Glass Book of Stories" as twelfth sequentially) which may or may not be an issue point although it seems unlikely that the book would have enjoyed more than one printing. Edward Gorey (Edward St. John Gorey, 1925-2000) is credited as the illustrator of the dust jacket and boards (which share a matching design) as well as the title page and the four section titles on pages 9, 61, 255, and 403. An anthology of short stories compiled by Yale graduate and Phillips Andover Academy English instructor Hart Day Leavitt (1909-2008) which features thirty-three contributions by James Thurber, John Collier, Robert M. Coates, William Carlos Williams, E.B. White [Elwyn Brooks White], Saki [H.H. Munro - Hector Hugh Munro], Oscar Wilde, Stephen Vincent Benet, Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens], Frank R. Stockton, Fitz-James O'Brien, Edgar Allan Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Anton Chekov, Conrad Aiken, Robert Louis Stevenson, H.G. Wells [Herbert George Wells], Shirley Jackson, Frank O'Connor, et al.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very good. First edition. Quarto (11-1/2" x 8"). 3 volumes. xxi, (7), 211, (1); xiii, (1), 184; xiii, (1), 226pp. Each vol. with an index. Original half brown morocco (some rubbing near foot of spines) over beveled cloth. Illustrated throughout with photos (of pottery, architecture, important individuals an…d historical sites from the Jewish communities in China), drawings, and maps. White's work is the first serious attempt to document the history of the Jewish Chinese community. Also included in the text is a lengthy codex in Hebrew and Chinese. This is an ex-library set but with very minimal markings (each volume has a small rubber stamp on the half-title and what appears to be the shadows or remnants of some other removed labels). William White (1873-1960) was a Canadian Church Minister in Fukien and later became the first Anglican Bishop of Honan, a post he held for 25 years. After being driven out of China by the civil wars, he returned to Toronto in 1935 where he became Professor of Chinese Studies at the University. During his time in China he was an inveterate (and controversial) collector of Chinese artifacts and antiquities for the Royal Ontario Museum and would later become the "Keeper of the Asiatic Collection." Note: Vol. 3, is by White in collaboration with Ronald James Williams and it Includes bibliographical references.
