An Ideal Husband

Oscar Wilde, 1899

[WILDE, Oscar (1854-1900).] An Ideal Husband by the Author of Lady Windermere's Fan. London: Leonard Smithers and Co, 1899.



Number 14 of the large paper edition of 100 copies, a lovely copy signed by the author. An Ideal Husband premiered in London at the Haymarket on 3 January 1895; its closing night there coincided with Wilde's arrest for gross indecency. It continued at the Criterion with Wilde's name stricken from the playbills. Wilde's imprisonment led to a several years delay in the publication of the text, with his name also obfuscated. Mason 386.



Quarto. Half title. Original lilac cloth with gilt design by Charles Shannon, uncut (faded spots on spine, some sunning).
