Uncle John. A Novel. New Edition.
London: Chapman and Hall..., 1874. FIRST ONE-VOLUME EDITION. 8vo, 170 x 108 mms., pp. [iv], 329 [330 blank], contemporary half hard-grain red morocco, marbled boards, spine ornately gilt, marbled edges and end-papers. Inscribed "W. G. Marshall/ Melton 1880" on recto of front free end-paper A very good copy. The entry in ODNB follows the style above, while library holdings list him as Whyte-Melville (George John). The novel was first published in three volumes, followed in a common practice for 19th century publishers, by a separate one-volume edition. In The Longman Companion to Victorian Fiction (2nd ed., 2009), John Sutherland writes, "A breezily attractive novel in WhyteMelville's sub-Trollopian style. The narrative opens with a January country-house party at Plumpton Priors. The host, (Uncle) John Dennison, is a hunting man. Among his guests are a cricketing parson, Algernon Lexley, Uncle John's niece, Annie, a young Etonian, Perigord, a bored man of the world, Percy Mortimer, and Laura Blair, a woman with a past. There are some hunting scenes but the novel's main action concerns Lexley's proposal to Laura. She tells him that she is in fact the widow of a gambler killed by pirates. They nevertheless marry and Laura's first husband, Delancy, unexpectedly returns. The couple separate, but are later reunited. Delancy is killed trying to escape from prison (Algernon converts him to Christianity on his cell deathbed). The other, quieter strand of the novel follows the courtship of Annie. The end of the novel is darkened by the death (or 'runin' as he calls it) of the amiable Uncle John." Copies of this 1874 Chapman and Hall one-volume edition appear to be uncommon in Copac libraries, with Aberdeen having a copy, while BL, NLS, and Aberdeen have copies of the three-volume edition. Curiously, the three-volume edition is also found in five continental libraries.

This Is Not a Toy; [Colophon: "Produced in Conjunction with the Exhibition This Is Not a Toy, Curated by Design Exchange (Dx), Canada\'s Design Museum and Presented from 7 February to 19 May 2004. "]
Toronto, Design Exchange, 2014. First printing. Softcover. pp. 448. Small Thick 8vo. Chiefly colour illustrations. No detectable flaws with contents bright, clean, and unmarked with tight, sound binding. Appears unread; as new. Scarce with no known copies presently available in commerce. "Designer toys occupy a unique place in contemporary visual culture. Lying at the intersection of product and graphic design, marketing and pop culture, urban vinyl is part merchandise, part art .. As an exhibition, This is Not a Toy aimed to introduce the art toy as a unique cultural symbol, and the book intends to go further by leading the reader deeper into this intriguing world. The publication considers the unusual position of the art toy as design object, work of art and consumer product; its fanatic fan base despite the fairly recent origins of the genre; the many cultural influences that led to its rise; the aesthetic and emotional attraction that these objects compel within the viewer; and ultimately, the designer toy as a legitimate and relevant art form.
