[Vwoolf] Woolf's margins

[mhussey at verizon.net]

A curator at the Morgan Library is preparing a digital version of the
"notebook" that includes "Letter to a Young Poet" and asked if anyone knew
when Woolf began drawing a blue line to create a margin on the notepaper she
used. "Letter to a Young Poet" is written on sheets with that blue margin
drawn by VW, and the sheets are sewn together (presumably by her). If anyone
who might have worked with such materials has thoughts on this practice and
whether it was something she did very early etc., please let me know.  The
holograph notebooks of Lighthouse have that same blue margin, but I'm not
sure how early in her writing and bookmaking practice it begins.

 

Thanks!
