Robert Surtees.  Mr. Jorrocks’ Lectors.  G. Denholm Armour, illus.

London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1910.  Copy no. 88 of 350, deluxe limited edition, signed by the illustrator.  4to., pp (vii), 3 - (150). 25 tipped-in color plates.  Full morocco with pictorial gilt, teg., others uncut.  Front cover very lightly bumped at corners and previous owner’s bookplate on front endpaper: otherwise, very good condition. 

Robert Surtees created the character of Jorrocks in his book Handley Cross, initially published in 1854, with illustrations by John Leech.  This handsome reissue contains “…a pictorial edition of the Lectors delivered by John Jorrocks, M.F.H., in Handley Cross...” (from the Introduction). G. D.  Armour’s appealing watercolor illustrations enhance the amusing text.
