Kahlil Gibran. The Prophet.

Rebound by the famous Bennett Book Studios of New York City, the mark of which is stamped on the inside fly leaf (see pictures). From the Lilly Library: “The Bennett Book Studios of New York City was established in the late 1920s by bookman and binder Whitman Bennett (b. 1884 in Cambridge, MA; d. 1968 in New York). The business sold rare books, particularly first editions and sets of American and English literature classics, and also operated as a fine bindery. Bennett Studios was known for crafting fine leather bindings, and the term "Bennett copy" arose in the book trade to refer to the binder's work in upgrading a second or third issue text with a first edition binding.”
