[EMERSON, Ralph Waldo (1803-1882).] ALCOTT, Amos Bronson (1799-1888). Emerson. Cambridge: Privately Printed, 1865.

One of only 50 copies of Emerson's birthday book. In original full morocco binding. This book was privately printed and distributed by both Alcott and Emerson on the occasion of Emerson's birthday, 25 May 1865. BAL notes four bindings, and surmises that the sheets were given away unbound. However, there are a number of identical copies of both A bindings (brown cloth) and B bindings (morocco) and it seems more likely that these two were bespoke orders either for the author or for Emerson. BAL 109.

Octavo (170 x 134mm). Photographic frontispiece of a bust of Emerson by Gould. Title printed in red and black. Original morocco, turn-ins gilt, all edges gilt (touch of rubbing, front free endpaper started).
