BURNEY, Francis (1752-1840). Evelina. Illustrated by Hugh Thomson. London: Macmillan and Co., n.d.
Kelliegram-style binding by Sangorski & Sutcliffe, with no less than six pictorial morocco inlays: a scene of Evelina and her two suitors on the upper cover and scenes of one figure each on the lower cover, both doublures, and both flyleaves. Kelliegram bindings—with colorful inlaid morocco scenes from the contents adapted to the book covers—were first developed by the English firm of Kelly & Sons in the 1880s. The present example is in their style, but with all the stops pulled out by their competitors, Sangorski & Sutcliffe.
Octavo (179 x 106mm). Frontispiece, illustrated title, and numerous illustrations by Hugh Thomson. Full crushed levant purple morocco extra by Sangorski and Sutcliffe, pink morocco doublures and endleaves, all edges gilt, gauffered and decorated in pink. The covers with elaborate gilt borders of rose branches enclosing multi-colored pictorial morocco scenes illustrating characters from the novel, spine and turn-ins gilt. Doublures and flyleaves of pink morocco similarly gilt and inlaid; each of the four morocco panels featuring a multi-colored pictorial inlaid morocco depiction of a character from the novel; pink silk endleaves. Full green morocco box lined with purple velvet, also by Sangorski and Sutcliffe.

The present example is in their style, but with all the stops pulled out by their competitors, Sangorski & Sutcliffe. Over a dozen different colors of morocco were used in the inlays depicting eight full-length figures; the gauffered edges additionally decorated in pink are also unusual.
