Rutland VT: Tuttle Company 1971. Hardbound. VG lacks dustjacket. Embossed tan cloth. 232 pp. with 300 illustrations in bw. A definitive work on this subject and still a classic after 30 years. From the dustjacket: "Historically the reader will trace the growth of folk pottery from the small one-man establishments producing hand-done products to large factories with mass-produced items in the hundreds; he will not further the changes in materials and productive methods the standardizing of ornamentation and motifs and the refining of techniques for shaping stamping and glazing pottery. Graphically the scholarly yet entertaining text is supplemented by more than 300 black-and-white photographs of early American and Canadian stoneware - from crocks inkwells porringers and the proverbial jug to bottles banks and Blind Pigs."

Blake William & William Butler Yeats and Edwin John Ellis editors
THE WORKS OF WILLIAM BLAKE POETIC SYMBOLIC AND CRITICAL . WITH LITHOGRAPHS OF THE ILLUSTRATED 'PROPHETIC BOOKS' AND A MEMOIR AND INTERPRETATION.
London: Bernard Quaritch 1893. Three volumes. Large thick octavo. Original green cloth spines and upper covers elaborately decorated in pictorial gilt after designs by Blake t.e.g. others untrimmed. Portrait facsimiles and plates. Spines somewhat rubbed and dull some shelfwear to joints and lower edges and bumps and wear to fore-tips endsheets a bit foxed and cloth a bit handsoiled some cracking and subtle repairs to inner hinges; still not a wholly disagreeable set of a work particularly susceptible to such issues. First edition. One of five hundred sets comprising the regular paper issue. Controversial in its interpretation of Blake's texts this work nonetheless remains in this issue and binding something of a landmark of 1890s book production. "The enthusiasm and comprehensiveness of this work are of considerable historical importance" - Bentley. Wade quotes Yeats's inscription in his own copy about the nature of this collaboration: "The writing of this book is mainly Ellis's the thinking is as much mine as his. The biography is by him. He re-wrote and trebled in size a biography of mine. The greater part of the 'symbolic system' is my writing; the rest of the book was written by Ellis working over short accounts of the books by me except in the case of the 'literary period' the account of the minor poems & the account of Blake's art theories which are all his own except in so far as we discussed everything together."
