Omar Khayyam Dulac, Edmund (illus.) Rubaiyat. Hodder & Stoughton, [1909]. 4to, cream buckram gilt; full colour plates tipped in. First trade ed. The Dulac Rubaiyat was an immediate critical and commercial success. It's success was such that (according to George Doran, the American publisher) when old Mr Hodder demanded of his grandson (the firm's manager) why they had published such a heathen book over his imprint, his grandson only had to mention how much they had made on it for Hodder's evangelical wrath to evaporate. S&S. Rubaiyat. Siegle, Hill & Co., [1910]. 4to, original cream cloth gilt, upper board with large gilt peacock; text pages reproduced calligraphy with floriated initials, some illuminated, some with colour illus to text, add. titles with large coloured decorated borders, full page colour plates. The text follows the Fitzgerald trans. with an introduction by A.C. Benson. The text and decorations have been reproduced after a manuscript by noted book binders Sangorski and Sutcliffe. Sangorski and Sutcliffe's name would forever be linked in book history with the Rubaiyat after the loss of the 'Great Omar' binding with the Titanic. [2]
