Lavishly illustrated with erotic decorative borders on almost every page by Eric Gill, Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, published in four volumes by the Golden Cockerel Press in 1929, is one of the most sought-after titles of the Golden Cockerel Press, and a significant addition to the Club’s collection of modern fine press books. It came to the Grolier Club in 2013 through the generosity of Peter Norton, programmer, software publisher, author, and philanthropist.
