A Complete 7 Volume Set of ‘New Excursions into English Poetry’ : With Their Scarce Illustrated Wrappers
<p>A complete 7 volume set of 'New Excursions into English Poetry' published between 1944 and 1947 by Frederick Muller Ltd London during war time economy standards. All 7 BOOKS are the First UK printings. All wrappers are protected in removable Brodart archival covers. 'This series is something of an experiment and demands original work both from the anthologer and the artist who have worked in collaboration though there has been no attempt to give literal and pictorial illustrations of the actual poems.' A superb collection of important poetry anthologies in original wrappers and illustrated with original lithographs by some of the leading Neo-Romantic artists of the period. Vol.1 : 'English Scottish & Welsh Landscape Verse' chosen by John Betjeman and Geoffrey Taylor with lithographs by John Piper. The BOOK is in Very Good or better condition. The WRAPPER is neatly price-clipped and is in Very Good condition with small losses to the spine ends. Vol.2 : 'The Poets Eye' anthology chosen by Geoffrey Grigson with 16 lithographs by John Craxton. The BOOK is in near Fine condition. The WRAPPER is complete and also is in like near Fine condition with some light age related markings to the rear panel. This title is the scarcest of the set to find with its wrapper in such collectible condition. Many copies have been broken up with the striking lithographs having been sold separately some for very high prices. Vol.3 :'Sea Poems' chosen by Myfanwy Piper with original lithographs by Mona Moore. The BOOK is in Very Good or better condition. Neat dated previous owner's name to the upper front paste-down. Some spotting to the upper text-block which has just lightly encroached on the page edges in a few places. The WRAPPER is complete and is in near Fine condition with very slight edge-wear and toning to the spine and folds. Vol. 4: 'A Soldiers' Verse' with lithographs by William Scott. Both the BOOK and WRAPPER are in Very Good or better condition. Internally clean. The wrapper has slithers of loss to the spine ends and lower corners. Vol. 5: 'Poems of Death' verses chosen by Phoebe Pool with lithographs by Michael Ayrton. The BOOK is in near fine condition.The WRAPPER is complete and is also in near Fine condition with very slight loss to the lower spine end. Vol.6 : 'Travellers' Verse' chosen by M.G. Lloyd Thomas with lithographs by Edward Bawden. The BOOK is in near fine condition. Neat dated penned previous owners name to the front blank end-paper. The WRAPPER is complete and is also in near Fine condition with only the very slightest of edge-wear. Vol.7 : 'Poems of Sleep and Dream' chosen by Carol Stewart with lithographs by Robert Colquhoun. The BOOK is in near Fine condition. Internally clean. The WRAPPER is complete and is in near Fine condition with slight slither of loss at the spine ends and a little toning to the spine.

Presber Rudolf author of verses. Illustrators include Ludwig Berwald Salensee Hans Bohrdt Hans Rudolf Schulze etc.
Vater ist im Kriege
Berlin: Hermann Hillger Verlag 1915. First Edition. Paper pastedown on boards. Very Good. 8vo. Unpaginated with 25 leaves a color plate on each of them not counting title leaf. The color plate is on the recto and the facing verso contains accompanying verse. The artwork bears the style of a darkish late impressionism as it moved towards an Expressionist sensibility. As not everything was by the same hand there is some diversity of style coloring literalism of course. Included is an original subscription or order form for the book. It would appear that the book was sold in part or perhaps entirely through direct sales spearheaded by the Crown Princess and conducted by aristocratic women at least in some measure. Light soiling to the cover pastedown. Scattered light soiling within. One gathering is partly loose. <br/><br/> Hermann Hillger Verlag hardcover books

London: John F. Shaw 1904. First edition. Publisher's quarter decorated cloth over full-color glazed pictorial boards corners a little worn.Small quarto 9 5/8 x 7 1/8 in; 245 x 180 mm. A few illustrations hand-colored by a child. Closed tear to bottom edge of page. 17. Early ink presentation dated "Christmas 1905" on front paste-down. Illustrated throughout in black and white and color with fifteen drawings by Louis Wain and an unrecorded text drawing by Arthur Rackham so initialed on page 40. Unrecorded and scarce with no copies noted in the Wain or Rackham bibliographies.<br/><br/>Anytime an unrecorded book illustration by Arthur Rackham comes to light it's an item for collectors to note. Buried within this book unheralded on page forty is a black and white text illustration of four chickens in various states of distress as they observe in high dudgeon and with no little annoyance a cat within their food bucket chowing down the chicken feed. And at the lower left of the bucket as small as can be are Rackham's initials as typically drawn. Latimore and Haskell and Riall make no mention of this illustration in their Rackham bibliographies and the Arthur Rackham Society expressed no knowledge of it when we inquired. A true scarcity -- a previously unknown Rackham during his transitional period when his fairies and goblins were emerging but had not yet fully vanquished the simple pay-the-bills work of his early years.<br/><br/>Cf.

REMINGTON Frederic AB. FROST and others illustrators AC. GOULD editor A. B. A. C.
Sport or Fishing and Shooting
Boston: Bradlee Whidden 1869. Folio. 15 chromolithographic plates after Frederic Remington A.B. Frost Fred Cozzens R.F. Zogbaum Henry Sandham and others. 32 ff. letterpress. Expertly bound to style in full dark purple straight grained morocco.<br/> <br/>A rare large-format work on sport in late 19th-century America including Frederic Remington's first two published prints in color a rare A.B.Frost image of deer-hunting and images from Fred. S.Cozzens and other top illustrators of the day.<br/> <br/>The present work includes six angling plates three of fly-fishing four plates of game-bird hunting and five of hunting larger game. Each of the fifteen subjects is first described in general terms on a single leaf of text followed by a second leaf giving a first-hand account of catching or shooting the subject followed by a chromolithograph illustrating the first-hand account. According to Gould's preface the plates are all from water-colours especially commissioned for the work which were subjected to the critical scrutiny of a group of anglers/sportsmen who judged them for technical accuracy. The plates are as follows: 1. Killing the Salmon. Henry Sandham. 2. A Moose hunt. Henry Sandham. 3. Trout fishing. Henry Sandham. 4. Fly-fishing for Black Bass. S.F. Denton. 5. Hunting Antelope i.e. Prong-horn. Frederic Remington. 6. Catching a Tarpon. Fred. S. Cozzens. 7. Mallard shooting. S.F. Denton. 8. Catching a Mascalonge. Frank H. Taylor. 9. A Wild Turkey hunt. R.J.

The two plates by Frederic Remington Hunting Antelope Hassrick & Webster 434 and Goose Shooting Hassrick & Webster 435 are also listed by Peggy and Harold Samuels Remington The Complete Prints New York 1990 pp.152-3 with the comment that they are the first and second Remington prints to appear in color. They were preceded only by a series of four monochrome photogravures for John Muir's Picturesque California 1888 and two other individual prints both black and white. Arthur Burdett Frost is now perhaps best known for his sporting pictures and prints but an aversion to deer-hunting meant that he rarely pictured shooting scenes that featured anything other than small game. His image Hunting the Deer is recorded and illustrated in Henry M.Reed's The A.B.Frost Book Charleston 1993 pp.101 104-5 but the author was apparently unaware that it was issued as part of the present work which is not included in the extensive appendix of books illustrated by Frost.<br/> <br/>Phillips p. 141; Wetzel p. 146; Sherwin sale 1946 lot 238; Bruns G120; Heller 1:502; Bennett p.48; Tyler Prints of the West pp.127 & 174; not in Reese Stamped with a National Character.

Rockwell, Norman
Rockwell on Rockwell: How I Make a Picture
176 pages. Index. "When Norman Rockwell was at the height of his career in the late 1940's, he wrote a delightful book called How I Make a Picture. It was the basis for an advanced illustration course at the Famous Artists School, but was never made available to the general public. We are now delighted to have this unique opportunity to make Rockwell's original book available for the first time in an expanded version, containing full-color reproductions of the artists best work along with previously unpublished color sketches." - from Publisher's Note. Book clean and unmarked with light wear. Average wear to dust jacket which bears some staining and a taped repair to bottom edge of back panel. A sound copy of this special book. Please note: we believe the ISBN stated on the publisher's page of this copy, 083202380x, is incorrect and have changed it to what we believe is the correct number. Book

Rowlandson Thomas and Green J.illustrators.
Poetical Sketches of Scarborough: Illustrated by Twenty-One Engravings of Humorous Subjects coloured from original designs made upon the spot by J. Green and etched by T. Rowlandson.
8vo in 4s. London: R. Ackermann 1813. 8vo in 4s 4 xv 1 blank 215 1 blank pp. Twenty-one hand-colored aquatint plates including frontispiece. Full crushed red morocco by Riviere covers gilt-ruled backstrip with five raised bands paneled in gilt gilt dentelles green coated endpapers all edges gilt. Joints lightly worn some offsetting from the plates a very good copy. § First edition. "The originals of the plates introduced in this volume were sketches made as souvenirs of the place during a visit to Scarborough 1812. They were not intended for publication but being found to interest many persons of taste several of whom expressed a desire to possess engravings of them and some gentlemen having offered to add metrical illustrations to each the present form of publication has been adopted. The several authors were not personally acquainted with each other" Advertisement. A delightfully silly satire on fashionable life at the seaside in Regency England perhaps better known to us today through the novels of Jane Austen. In later years Scarborough became a favorite place of Anne Brontë who was prescribed the spa waters and sea air for her tuberculosis and who died there in 1849. The versified descriptions of the spa the castle the ball room and sea-bathing among other things were here published anonymously; in the second edition the authors were identified as W. Coombe J. B. Papworth and F. Wrangham. "Plate 8 'The Warm Bath' is said to contain the portrait of Mrs. Robinson George IV's mistress" Tooley. Abbey Scenery 297. Tooley 422. R. Ackermann hardcover books
