This gold-tooled design comes from a 1990s binding crafted by Scott Husby, who used fragments from the early 1800s to create a beautiful new cover for this copy of Shakespeare¿s First Folio. Originally published in 1623, <I>Mr. William Shakespeare¿s Comedies, Histories, & Tragedies<I> (or, First Folio) is the only reliable text for nearly 20 of Shakespeare¿s plays, including <I>The Tempest<I> and <I>Twelfth Night.<I><\#13><\e><\e>Today, the <I>First Folio<I> is one of the most valuable books in the world, with one being sold in 2001 for over $6 million. There are only 235 surviving copies, from approximately 750 printed, and the Folger holds nearly one third of them, including the binding reproduced here.
