Annette bound a 1929 Hogarth Press edition (first imprint of the unified edition) in full orange goatskin. Tooling on the covers is done with platinum leaf and four shades of yellow. The author’s name and title are tooled on the spine in platinum, in addition to two horizontal lines at the head and tail in platinum and purple.
