GILL, Eric. War Memorial, Welfare Handbook No. 10. Ditchling, Sussex: S. Dominic's Press, 1923. 4to (158 x 125mm.) Wood-engraved title is the 'Hound of St. Dominic' by David Jones, wood-engraved plate to first leaf by Gill. (Untrimmed, mild toning.) Original card covers, paper wrapper with paper title wrap-around to one corner (browning to margins). Note: a curious item. In this work Gill defends his commission for a war memorial for Leeds university, 'Christ Driving the Moneylenders from the Temple', against the claim that it had nothing at all to do with war. - And four further volumes (including another Eric Gill related item, a bound 4pp. extract from 'The Four Gospels', 1931, folio, and a bound calligraphic extract by Thomas W. Swindlehurst) (5).
