[Stronach, George & George Roland Halkett]
New Gleanings from Gladstone, etc. (8 pamphlets total)
Publisher: Edinburgh: William Blackwood & Sons, [1880]
unpaginated illustrated pamphlet 12mo: near Fine. This is the first pamphlet in a bound series of satirical political humor, cartoons and caricatures of the great English Liberal statesman William Ewart Gladstone (1809-98). Also bound in are More Gleanings from Gladstone [1881], The Gladstone A.B.C. [1883], The Liberal Mis-Leaders [1880], The Gladstone Almanack 1885 [1885], The Egyptian Red Book [1885], A Diary of the Gladstone Government [1886] and The Irish Green Book [1888]. Most of these were apparently written by George Stronach, who died in 1915. Several were collaborations with or solely by illustrator George Roland Halkett (1855-1915). The pamphlets are handsomely half-bound in burgundy calf with marbled reddish boards and endpapers, raised spine bands and gilt decorations. The top edge is gilt. There is some shelf rubbing at the extremities. Overall a very nice collection of these Victorian pamphlets in one volume.
