‎Poe's Tales of Mystery and Imagination‎

‎London: Harrap 1935. Rackham Arthur. Quarto. 318pp. One of 460 copies signed by Rackham. Illustrated throughout with twelve color plates and seventeen plates in black & white. These gruesome sadistic illustrations perfectly suit Poe's dark tales.

Some natural variation to the vellum of the front cover a bit of toning and spotting to spine faint rubbing to rear cover else fine in vellum gilt-stamped with the design of a skeleton holding a bloody knife on the front cover. In the original slipcase with spine label. T.e.g. Latimore & Haskell pp. 72-73; Hamilton pp. 153-154. Harrap unknown‎

‎The Owl at Alfriston‎

‎Henley-on-Thames UK 1957. Alexander Margaret. Small octavo. i 9pp. Calligraphic manuscript on paper written in green and black ink with first line and small text initials in gold. Text opens with a large illuminated initial "O" with the watercolor figure of an owl; the text closes with another watercolor owl this one inside a cage rendered in gold. The text is an excerpt from chapter 14 of W. H. Hudson's Nature in Downland and recounts the tale of an African horned owl that resided at a sweets shop in the village of Alfriston. The bird had been rescued by the owner's son and the author draws the conclusion that those who frequented the shop did so in order to see the caged owl. With a one-page "Scribe's Apology" on the verso of the last leaf noting a repeated line. Tipped-in to rear paste-down is a small calligraphed label noting the specifics of this manuscript and its price in 1957. This copy bears the bookplate and ownership markings of prominent book collector J. R. Abbey. Margaret Alexander 1902-1997 studied at the Slade School of Fine Art and taught calligraphy and illuminating there from 1928-1957. She was also a calligrapher to the House of Lords from 1926-1963 and worked for the Stanbrook Abbey Press.

‎Semonides of Amorgos‎

‎Women‎

‎Brisbane: Locks' Press 1983. Ryder Mona. Small quarto. 9ff. 11 plates mounted on stubs 3 of which are folding. Illustrated with thirteen etchings by Mona Ryder a sculptor-turned-printmaker who studied with Margaret Lock. In keeping with the Locks' ambition to rescue "unjustly neglected" texts this book revives what is likely the best-known work from a relatively obscure 7th-century BCE poet in a translation by Joseph Addison. The satiric poem presents an origin story for women and catalogues ten "types" using comparisons to animals. The Locks operated their press in Brisbane Australia until 1987 when they relocated to Canada. This is a fine copy in black cloth featuring a lithographed design by Ryder. Locks' Press unknown‎

‎Giacomo Joyce‎

‎NY: Vincent FitzGerald & Co 1989. Weil Susan. Folio. 32pp. One of fifty copies signed by the artist Susan Weil. Throughout the text are scattered collages papers and etchings that work together to create an interactive multimedia experience for the reader.

Near fine in gray cloth with slightest spine lean. Vincent FitzGerald & Co unknown‎

‎Pollard Alfred W.‎

‎The Kelmscott & Doves Presses‎

‎Vancouver B.C.: Heavenly Monkey 2019. Jackson Martin. Tall quarto. 18 10pp. two tipped-in leaves. From an edition of 55 copies this is one of thirty comprising the "Printed" issue. Reprints Pollard's essay which first appeared in 1921 as the introduction to the catalogue of William Andrews Clark's Kelmscott and Doves collections printed by John Henry Nash. Pollard offers a summary of the typographical and aesthetic aims of both presses the common denominator of each being Emery Walker; this edition presents the opportunity to examine a specific example from each press-an example to which Pollard makes reference in his essay. The leaves included here are from the Kelmscott edition of The Golden Legend and The English Bible considered by many to be the masterpiece of the Doves Press. As Pollard also considers the use of ornament particularly by Doves so Heavenly Monkey has presented this text with calligraphic flourishes by Martin Jackson printed in red from polymer plates. With a "Note from the Printer" which examines several of Pollard's statements about margin and proportion. Bound in cloth backed boards that have been covered with acrylic paints. Paper spine and cover labels. A typically elegant and substantive work from Rollin Milroy's Press. Very fine. Heavenly Monkey unknown‎
