The most interesting donation we've had in our charity bookshop for
a while; a small calf-bound volume of poems by J.G. Nicholson, gold
blocked on the cover "A Chaplet of Southernwood or A Garden of
Ladslore" (sic, should be "Ladslove").


Both seem exceedingly rare. OCLC lists only 2 copies of A CHAPLET OF
SOUTHERNWOOD and only 5 copies of A GARLAND [not: GARDEN] OF LADSLOVE.

Maggs has a copy of A GARLAND for sale for £720.

I have no doubt that there are private and institutional collectors
who would be very interested.

A very nice find indeed--I might consider sending it to a real auction
house.
