On Going to Church
by George Bernard Shaw, 1896
#3 of 26
This book measures 7" x 4 5/8" and has
40 pages . It was illustrated by
W. W. Denslow and Bertha Hubbard, illumined by Minnie Gardner and printed on
Tokyo Vellum. The binding is Japan Vellum.
The September 1896 Philistine is where we first see mention of this book
and there were actually two ads.
They state that 25 copies are this book are being done on Japan vellum, another
says "Tokio" vellum with
various artists, including Bertha Hubbard doing the illuminating and that all copies being spoken for,
but the asking price had been $5.00. The edition as we know was of 26.
