LOT 3129
FREEMASONRY. - A. LEWIS (publisher). 'Emulation Working'. The Lectures of the Three Degrees in Craft Masonry. London: Privately Printed for A. Lewis, 1880. Small 8vo (133 x 99mm.) 3 folding plates. (Toning.) Original green blind-stamped cloth (light rubbing). Note: scarce. The name, or rather term, 'Lewis' has some meaning in freemasonry. It originated in stonemasonry where a 'lewis' was a tool that helped lift heavy blocks of stone. It then evolved into meaning the son of a freemason, someone whose strength could do some of the heavy lifting. The publisher's name has evolved, too. It's gone from 'A. Lewis' to 'Lewis Masonic', and still publishes books today.
