MORRIS, William (1834-1896) -- SOCIALIST LEAGUE. The Commonweal. London: 1889-1890.
Rare issues of Britain's leading 19th-century socialist newspaper, containing Morris' final contribution. In 1884, a split in the Social Democratic Federation caused Morris and others to resign and found a new group called the Socialist League. Morris financed the League's newspaper, The Commonweal, from its inception in February 1885 until the end of 1890. The present lot contains many of Morris' writings (a full listing is given in Buxton Forman) and includes Morris' farewell article 'Where are we Now?' (no. 253, 15 November 1890). H. Buxton Forman, The Books of William Morris, pp.197-213; cf. Linda Parry, William Morris, E.7.
Large quarto (390 x 260mm). 47 issues from volumes 5 and 6 (horizontal creasefolds, a few issues with sheets loose, some some extremities frayed, some light dust-soiling). Provenance: British Library of Political Science (stamps).
