LADY GREGORY. The White Cockade, a Comedy in Three Acts. Dublin: Maunsel and Co. 1905. 12mo. First edition, being Volume VIII of the Abbey Theatre Series. Publisher’s blue card covers with the famous Abbey logo to front. A very good copy. The covers a trifle creased and bumped at extremities. Light scattered foxing in places. A smart copy overall.
The front cover design is by Limerick-born artist and illustrator, Elinor Darwin (née Monsell), and it depicts Queen Maeve and her Irish wolfhound in perfect harmony with the Irish Revival which the image often represented.
