B for Beggar. 1898. Woodcut with hand coloring by the artist. 9 3/4 x 7 3/4 (sheet 17 x 14). Series: An Alphabet. Set of 26 woodcuts hand colored by the artist from the édition de luxe of 50. Acording to Campbell, p. 182, "In this edition, woodcuts printed from the original blocks were hand-coloured by the artist, trimmed to the border, mounted on card, signed in pen and ink on the card and issued loose in a portfolio." The original card for this woodcut has been replaced by modern card.

This print was an ironic portrait of Nicholson's brother-in-law, James Pryde.
