Black Swan Books is TEMPORARILY closed in the aftermath of a “water event” in an adjacent building.
We expect that we will be down through March and hope to resume sending our weekly e-catalogues in April. At that time we will be open “by appointment only”. Until then our books will not be for sale. In the meantime, you can contact us by email at nick@blackswanbooks.com.

[EDITION DELUXE] LONGFELLOW PORTFOLIO, BEING A SELECTION OF SEVENTY-FIVE ARTIST PROOFS FROM THE ORIGINAL WOOD-CUTS ILLUSTRATING THE NEW SUBSCRIPTION EDITION OF LONGFELLOW’S POETICAL WORKS
Houghton Mifflin, 1881.
Three Quarters Leather. A beautiful copy of the Longfellow Portfolio [Deluxe Edition] bound in three quarter morocco over green pebbled cloth. All edges gilt. All of the numbered plates are present, but none have the artist’s pencilled signature. The subscriber’s list is not present. We believe that this is most likely an overrun of the Houghton Mifflin edition, bound up very handsomely indeed.
Very Good+ binding.
