New Acquisition: Cuala Press

This was the first of a new series of books printed by the Cuala Press when it was revived in 1969. It is one of 500 copies, and was Carolyn Hammer's copy (for a discussion of her and her husband Victor's work, see http://www.grolierclub.org/ExHammer.htm). It joins several other Cuala Press books in the Irish collection.
The Burns Library (Boston College) has a great collection of Cuala Press materials: see http://bc.edu/libraries/about/exhibits/burns/cuala.html.

The correct names of the Yeats sisters are Susan "Lily" and Elizabeth "Lollie"

Or as Joyce in Ulysses calls them "the weird sisters"
