Meadow Run Press
Archive of Meadow Run Press Sporting Book Publisher 1989-2010 including the publisher's own copies of the books original artwork correspondence typescripts proofs ephemera editorial foul matter etc.
Stone Harbor; Far Hills New Jersey 2010. Approx 60 linear feet 31 file boxes and 1 box of oversize material. Fine. Approx 60 linear feet 31 file boxes and 1 box of oversize material. The Archive of Meadow Run Press sporting book publisher 1989-2010. For two decades William D. Trego's Meadow Run Press set the standards for American sporting book publishing and issued a series of finely produced original works by new and established authors as well as sporting club histories privately printed angling volumes and a select group of reprints of neglected classics. The books among them Sea Level and Marquesa by Jeffrey Cardenas The Henryville Fly Fishers by Ernest Schwiebert Live Water by Tom McGuane and the cult classic The Starlight Creek Angling Society by Harry Middleton are notable for their content and for a consistent attention to design illustration and the form of the finished book. Many of the titles were also issued in limited deluxe editions with special bindings and additional material by the artists and authors; several were printed letterpress by Bradley Hutchinson of Austin Texas. The books were uniformly well received by reviewers and readers alike and several were reprinted on multiple occasions. The publisher Mr. William D. Trego variously of Stone Harbor and Far Hills New Jersey was educated at the Philadelphia College of Art now the University of the Arts Temple University and Villanova University. He established the press as his interests in collecting evolved from American literature to American sporting books and to the outdoors. From modest beginnings in 1989 with a reprint of a classic American angling work he undertook to publish original works and commissioned suitable illustration art from living American artists including Peter Corbin John Swan John Rice and others. The Meadow Run Press books reflected the publisher's style and something of his character as well: Tom McGuane now a legendary figure in American outdoor writing wrote to Mr. Trego "The books are beautiful and you've done such a fantastic job on this project - in every way! I've been writing for a living for almost three decades and this is by far my most pleasant publishing experience" autograph letter signed dated 27 December 1996 in the archive. The Archive includes editorial business and production correspondence relating to the books and to their sale to mail-order and trade customers with significant exchanges with authors Tom McGuane Ernest Schwiebert Tosh Brown David Swanson John Cole and others as well as with the artists commissioned by the press. Mr. Trego views The Starlight Creek Angling Society as one of the most significant accomplishments of the press and this is documented in the original typescript of the book as well as in the extensively edited drafts and abundant correspondence with the author who died untimely soon after the book was published. The other important discovery of the press was Jeffrey Cardenas whose first book Marquesa has become a modern salt water angling classic. M.L. Biscotti's A Bibliography of American Sporting Books 1926-1985 1997 is a significant addition to the tradition of sporting reference works. Mr. Trego is himself a well-regarded writer and one large archive box relating to his earlier articles is present. The archive also includes a variety of submission manuscripts for works that the press declined to publish. As a bookman Mr. Trego is known for his his meticulous insistence on condition; all of the publisher's copies of books are in superb condition most with warm inscriptions from the authors and often with original drawings by the artists. Much of the smaller format artwork has been put into boxes to accompany notable typescripts such as the raw unedited typescript of Schwiebert's Henryville Fly Fishers or the substantial archive of Harry Middleton material. Generally the condition of materials in the archive files is fine; some of the correspondence is on thermal fax paper and thus may present conservation issues in the longer term. Mr. Trego is at work on a book on Harry Middleton and Starlight Creek and retains all publishing rights in the Middleton material suitable acknowledgment of the owner of the archive would be made when the book is published. A full description of the contents is available. A substantial archive and a rich glimpse into American sporting publishing at the close of the twentieth century.
