[Arion Press] Melville, Herman; Helen Vendler, editor and introduction; Barry Moser, frontispiece
Selected Poems
San Francisco: Arion Press 1995. Fine. Number 200 of 250 numbered copies with 26 lettered copies hors de commerce. It is the forty-seventh publication of the Arion Press and rather scarce with no copies in commerce. The book shares characteristics with the sixth publication of the press Moby-Dick by the same author of 1979 in that the same typeface is used Goudy Modern . it is printed on the same paper which was made for that edition by hand to the specifications of the press at the Barcham Green Mill in England and bears watermarks of the mill the press and of a sperm whale; and the same artist Barry Moser has engraved a new portrait of Herman Melville on Resingrave for the frontispiece. The text type was composed and cast on the Monotype by Mackenzie & Harris. The display type is Goudy Open and was set by hand. The book was designed and produced by Andrew Hoyem and conceived in many ways as a companion to the 1979 Moby Dick one of the most important press books of the twentieth century." from the Prospectus. This book was suggested to Hoyem by the renowned scholar of poetry Helen Vendler. She regarded Melville as among the greatest American poets of the 19th century and was eager to make a selection that would show the variety of his best poetry. Despite the importance attached to his poems today by scholars and critics seldom did readers have any appreciation for Melville the poet.<br /> <br /> Bound in bright blue cloth with darker blue dyed leather goatrskin bands left over from the earlier Moby Dick. The bands run across the top and bottom edges of the book with title and author in silver foil. Printed on octavo sized paper of 6.75 x 9 7/8 inches using Goudy Modern type in a smaller point size than the 1979 volume. Top page edges trimmed while the fore-edge and bottom edges are untrimmed. The signatures were folded by hand and each copy was sewn by hand with linen thread over linen tapes. Housed in a blue cloth slipcase with blue goatskin title label to spine. Accompanied by the prospectus. In fine condition. Measures 7 x 10 inches. 156 numbered pages. PRI/110424. Arion Press unknown

Tall octavo 253 × 160 mm 4 pages a bifolium. Some marginal creases; two puncture marks near the top left-hand corner; a very good copy. The position of prime minister in New Zealand was known as premier until 1907. Robert Seddon 1845-1906 was premier from 1893; he died in office. He 'attracted much publicity for his outspokenness about the South African war: he visited South Africa in 1902 at General Kitchener's invitation. He was increasingly ready to arouse and exploit popular nationalism' 'Dictionary of New Zealand Biography'. The speech was 'Delivered at a Dinner given in his honour by the Public Bodies of Johannesburg during his recent visit' en route to the 1902 Colonial Conference in London held on the occasion of the coronation of Edward VII. The conference opened on 30 June 1902. In 1939 Herman Guest the publisher's son had some of these original Klerksdorp printings bound up and issued with a new foreword telling the story of the production of his father's 'records of the campaign in the Western Transvaal and elsewhere. It will be realized that the accounts were written during times of stress and consequently some of the statements have an "ex parte" complexion. Their value . lies in the fact that they were written and produced when Klerksdorp was practically in a state of siege. The inhabitants were unable to proceed a mile in any direction from the market square and the one railway line although closely guarded was frequently disturbed by Boers'. Provenance: a Western Australian member of the 4th Battalion Australian Commonwealth Horse. H.M. Guest, Printer and Publisher, Bookseller, Stationer, etc. unknown

[Lakeside1] Melville, Herman (1819-1891)
Moby Dick or The Whale
Chicago: The Lakeside Press 1930. Limited Edition one of 1000 copies. Hardcovers in publisher's aluminum slipcase. Quartos. 891 pages in total. Fine in good somewhat brittle acetate jackets all housed in the original aluminum slipcase. The volumes are bound in black cloth over bevelled boards with spines and upper boards titled and decorated in stamped silver foil top edges black. Acetate jackets have overall wrinkling a few chips and tears and are fragile. A strikingly well-preserved set of this amazing edition. Illustrated by Rockwell Kent. The stunning limited edition of what is widely regarded as the definitive edition of "Moby Dick." Melville's great novel was not well received when published in 1851 and it and he languished in relative obscurity through the rest of the 19th century. Rockwell Kent came to the rescue with the nearly 300 illustrations he produced for this edition while deeply immersing himself in the text as he worked over a period of years. The result is the closest thing possible to a Kent-Melville collaboration.<br /> <br /> Nicknamed "the fish in the can" because of the distinctive aluminum slipcase that houses the three volumes this edition is also a landmark in 20th century American fine press work book illustration and design. It was conceived and produced by the Lakeside Press for their "Four American Books" project. <br /> <br /> The Lakeside Press was the fine press division of the R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company of Chicago and the "American Books" project was designed to demonstrate their ability to execute fine printing on par with European presses. The other three books in the series were Edgar Allan Poe's "Tales" "Two Years Before the Mast" by Richard Henry Dana and Thoreau's "Walden."<br /> <br /> A beautiful set in original acetate jackets and slipcase.<br /> <br /> Ref.

Includes: Nation Self and Personification / Author as Monarch / Author as Subject / Blaming the Victim / Knowing the Victim / Personified Accounting / Wai Chee Dimock approaches Herman Melville not as a timeless genius but as a historical figure caught in the politics of an imperial nation and an "imperial self." She challenges our customary view by demonstrating a link between the individualism that enabled Melville to write as a sovereign author and the nationalism that allowed America to grow into what Jefferson hoped would be an "empire for liberty." hardcover

[MELVILLE, Henry (1799 - 1873)]
The history of the island of Van Diemen's Land from the year 1824 to 1835 inclusive
To which is added a few words on prison discipline. London : Smith and Elder 1835 printed by H. Melville in Hobart-Town Van Diemen's Land. Octavo contemporary straight-grained green morocco spine ruled in gilt expertly rebacked later endpapers; pp. iv; 276; occasional spotting a very good example. The very rare separate issue of the first edition of Melville's significant history highly critical of the administration of Governor Sir George Arthur. 'Attention has already been drawn to the histories of Van Diemen's Land that appeared in the early almanacs. All were mere sketches apart from Melville's substantial 'History of the Island of Van Diemen's Land' which had appeared in his 1836 almanac but was also separately published in London by Smith and Elder using sheets printed in the colony. It is well researched and well written with extensive footnotes quoting contemporary newspapers and government sources. Melville began with the Sorrell administration but concentrated on Arthur's government from 1824 until the end of 1835. The great issues of the period - freedom of the press trial by civil jury and representative government - are central themes and Melville creates the Aborigies with a sensitivity and balance unusual for the times. The London issue is very rare with only three copies changing hands in the past thirty years. A good copy should reach at least $5000'. - Ian Wilson Collecting Old Tasmanian Books Melbourne Boobook Press 2010 p. 109 As Jonathan Wantrup notes in his catalogue entry for the last example recorded at auction 'Ferguson repeats an old bookman's story that thesheets of the book were ""smuggled"" out of the colony to be published in London - charming but untrue' Australian Book Auctions Books and Documents featuring the Hawker Library 5th May 2008 lot 153 $6408. Very rare. Ferguson 1986 Wilson 305 unknown
