(LEAF BOOK - EARLY PRINTING, WOODCUTS). SCHREIBER, WILHELM LUDWIG
DER BUCHHOLZSCHNITT IM 15. JAHRHUNDERT IN ORIGINAL-BEISPIELEN
München: Weiss & Co. Antiquariat 1929. No. 21 OF 50 SETS issued with accompanying German text; there were also 50 with accompanying English text. 480 x 375 mm. 19 x 14 3/4". With an 87-pp. volume of commentary in German. <br/> Loose as issued in a linen-covered chemise titling in black on front cover. Commentary volume in original paper wrapper. WITH 55 LEAVES FROM INCUNABULA issued by German Swiss Dutch Czech and Italian presses ALL WITH ONE OR MORE WOODCUTS 32 OF THESE HAND-COLORED. ◆Front cover of commentary volume with thin six-inch brown stain along head edge but the volume otherwise clean and fresh the leaves with occasional browning or minor staining but excellent specimens overall the hand coloring often quite attractive.<br/> <br/> Arranged according to the city in which they were printed this is a wonderful collection of 55 incunabular leaves all illustrated with woodcuts. The group includes important early images large and small with 32 of them hand painted often with brilliant memorable color. Although every leaf here is of interest there are some leaves that deserve special mention: the 1471 Zainer printing of "Heiligenleben" the earliest leaf included; a number of leaves from herbals Bibles and lives of the saints; leaves representing two different editions of Brant's "Stultifera Navis" a Basel 1500 edition of Aesop and the celebrated 1499 Aldine "Hypnerotomachia Poliphili." A full-page woodcut from Koberger's "Schatzbehalter" "Treasure Book" 1491 shows Korah Dathan and Abiram being swallowed up by the Earth for their rebellion against God while Moses and Aaron pray as God sends fire to destroy the rebels. <br /> <br /> Among the hand-painted woodcuts are several that are outstanding both for the composition of large complex images and for exuberant coloring. These include Pharoah's daughter rescuing the baby Moses as well as the adult Moses with the burning bush both from the German Bible printed by Koberger in 1483; a view of the city of Perugia in Schedel's "Weltchronik" 1493; and another Schedel leaf depicting the martyrdoms of the Apostles Andrew and Thomas. The 55 specimens included here would serve very well either as a final capstone in an advanced collection or else an outstanding nucleus for a beginning collector of illustrated incunabular leaves. Several of the books represented are difficult to obtain and most of the ones that can be procured are very expensive. Weiss & Co. Antiquariat unknown

(LEAF BOOK - KELMSCOTT PRESS AND PRINTING HISTORY). PIRAGES, PHILLIP J
LETTERS FROM THE 15TH CENTURY: ON THE ORIGINS OF THE KELMSCOTT CHAUCER TYPEFACE. A STUDY WITH SPECIMEN LEAVES OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE EARLY GERMAN PRINTERS ON WILLIAM MORRIS' MASTERPIECE
McMinnville Oregon: Phillip J. Pirages 2019. No. VII OF 47 COPIES numbered I-XLVII bound in flexible vellum from a total edition of 165 COPIES. Text: 244 x 154 mm. 9 1/8 x 6 1/8"; Case: 502 x 372 mm. 19 3/4 x 14 5/8". ii 75 pp. <br/> Bound in flexible vellum with ties inspired by Kelmscott Press bindings by Amy Borezo who also constructed the case holding the volume and leaves. The book printed letterpress on Zerkall Book Laid Vellum paper by Arthur Larson at Horton Tank Graphics. Book layout by Jill Mann. EACH COPY WITH FIVE LEAVES: ONE FROM THE KELMSCOTT CHAUCER WITH woodcut borders woodcut beginning word and A WOODCUT SCENE DESIGNED BY EDWARD BURNE-JONES AND ONE EACH FROM THE PRESSES OF FOUR GERMAN PRINTERS FROM THE 1470s--PETER SCHOEFFER JOHANN MENTELIN GÜNTHER ZAINER AND ANTON KOBERGER the Zainer leaf featuring at least one woodcut initial. The incunabular leaves consistently excellent with only minor defects and the Kelmscott leaves which were never part of a bound volume in entirely fine condition.<br/> <br/> This is a unique leaf book in the way that it combines three elements: a significant private press production involving people at the top of their craft a scholarly commentary that contributes to a further understanding of the history of printing and--most important--five leaves: one from the Kelmscott Press "Works" of Geoffrey Chaucer and four from books issued by German printers at work in the 1470s. The book has been printed and bound by hand by gifted professionals; the essay addresses a topic of significance to typophiles in a considerably more thoroughgoing way than has been done before; and the assemblage of leaves represents a powerful visual reinforcement of the text as well as an opportunity to share in the ownership of four important incunabula along with the extraordinary Kelmscott Chaucer. The story of the production is heavy on serendipity: in the winter of 2012 after purchasing a very incomplete copy of the Kelmscott Chaucer at auction we considered the possibility of producing a leaf book but because the Chaucer--universally considered to be one of the most beautiful books ever printed--had been written about by so many different people in so many different ways we didn't know what aspect was left for us to explore. The one topic we fastened on as thus far inadequately examined is the origin of the work's typeface. We soon learned that Morris who is known to have owned more than 500 incunables most admired--and was consequently most likely to have been influenced in his typographic design by--Peter Schoeffer of Mainz Johann Mentelin of Strassburg Günther Zainer of Augsburg and Anton Koberger of Nuremberg. Over the course of the years succeeding the purchase of the defective Chaucer we were fortunate beyond all expectation to acquire incomplete books from each of these four eminent printers. As a result the present leaf book will allow the reader not only to read in the accompanying essay about the influence on Morris of his typographic forebears but also to compare with his or her own eyes the resemblances between the Kelmscott leaf and the leaves from four centuries earlier. The essay comes in one of three bindings which reflect the degree of decorative elaboration on the accompanying Kelmscott leaf: linen-backed paper boards in imitation of the small format Kelmscott publications with a leaf containing text and small initials; floral patterned cloth after a Morris design with a leaf containing multiple six-line initials; or in the most deluxe version as here in flexible vellum with ties with a leaf featuring a full woodcut frame one or more prominent woodcut initials and a very large and striking Edward Burne-Jones woodcut scene.
