The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam:
~1910s Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent Bernard Way Edition

This Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co. edition was “written and embellished” by Bernard Way and features what looks to be the first edition of the text. It’s a simple copy, but the poetry is quite pretty. The cover is purplish. It is undated, but it is possibly from 1919 or around then due to an inscription dated 1919.

Update 12/2024: Updated title/slug to use 1910s based on inscription (conforming to new standards)
