Description:
Oxford: Thos. Shrimpton and Son, 1878. First Edition. Sewn binding. Very good +. Octavo, 16pp. First and only issue, with the Oxford crest on the front wrapper and title page (there were pirated editions that lacked these). A nice, sound copy, internally lovely, with the original grey-green wrappers expertly backed onto sympathetic archival paper. Overall very good or better. A fragile publication, and among the most elusive of Wilde volumes. The Newdigate Prize, awarded since 1806, is given to the best composition in English verse by an undergraduate student at Oxford. A strong effort right out of the gate from the short-lived but highly influential Anglo-Irish writer. Mason 301.
