MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE 149 puts this beautiful set among your books paid at the rate of $1 a month keeps it there CUT-PRICE INVENTORY SALE Not long ago we manufactured for another publisher a special edition of Shakespeare's works in ten cloth-bound library volumes, which we call the EDITION DE LUXE. This publisher now finds that he can not use quite as many sets as he originally supposed, and therefore, for his convenience and our own, we have decided to offer this very limited remainder of an edition at startling sacrifice prices to Motion Picture Magazine readers. Never before have we sold a set of Shakespeare at so low a figure, and never before have Motion Picture Magazine readers been able to get anything like this value for their money. These books are strictly high-grade in every feature of their making. The binding is a durable art cloth with gold back-stamp, and a medallion portrait of Shakespeare on the front cover. The text is the standard Cambridge version, and the critical comments, critical and explanatory notes, study questions, etc., etc., are our own copyrighted material. The text is printed in bold, clear type from excellent plates on a well-proportioned page. The illustrations, forty in number, are in duotone ink on special India-tint inserts. This advertisement positively will not appear again, and you should send in the coupon now, as the number of sets is extremely limited, and bargain hunters will take advantage of this unusual offer. SPECIAL EDITORIAL FEATURES: Critical Comments explaining the plays and characters, selected from the writings of eminent Shakespearean scholars. Glossaries Following Each Play, so that you do not have to turn to a separate volume to find the meaning of every obscure word. Two Sets of Notes: Explanatory notes for the general reader, and critical notes for the student or scholar. Arguments giving a full story of each play in interesting, readable prose. Study Methods, consisting of study questions and suggestions — the idea being to furnish a complete college course of Shakespearean study. Life of Shakespeare by Dr. Israel Gollancz, with critical essays by Bagehot, Stephen, and other distinguished Shakespearean scholars and critics.
