Edward Gorey: The Fraught Settee Boxed Notecards

In The Fraught Settee, Edward Gorey serves what he calls ¡°the universal solvent¡± in Edwardian parlors, where fainting couches host feverish affairs and fretful discontent. Knowing that Gorey had a penchant for nonsense verse, one wonders whether Q.R.V. is a cryptic cure-all or drivel of a dubious nature. The illusive concoction¡¯s initials appear on the cover of the book, though its title does not. Published by Gorey¡¯s Fantod Press in 1990, this collection of verse is as enigmatic as its creator. 16 assorted notecards (2 each of 8 designs) with envelopes Interior message features Edward Gorey¡¯s original Q.R.V. text Paper-wrapped decorative slipcase, including drawer with ribbon pull tab Decorative envelopes Dimensions: Box size: 6.6 x 5 x 1.6 in, Card size: 6 x 4.5 in.
