1801pp. (vi), 243. Large 4to. Worn early full leather binding. Signs of prtevious ownerships removed. Very clean and wide margined text. Printed by one of the great firms to work in England in the wake of Baskerville. FIRST EDITION. Henry James Pye (1745-1813), poetaster and poet laureate. He was educated at home until 1762, when he entered Magdalen College, Oxford, as a gentleman-commoner. From an early age Pye cultivated literary tastes, and his main object in life was to obtain recognition as a poet. In 1790 Pye was appointed poet laureate, in succession to Thomas Warton, and he held the office for twenty-three years. He doubtless owed his good fortune to the support he had given the prime minister, Pitt, while he sat in the House of Commons. Pye was the intimate friend of Governor John Penn (1729-1795). This work has been described as his magnum opus, and was dedicated to Addington. W139 ON HOLD

1904ref. ST20796London: Essex House Press 1904. No. 1 OF 140 COPIES all on vellum. 195 x 131 mm. 7 3/4 x 5 1/8". 1 p.l. frontispiece 3-11 2 pp. Original stiff vellum over thin boards front cover with embossed rose design. In custom-made linen clamshell box with red morocco label on spine. Hand-colored woodcut frontispiece and final tailpiece both by Reginald Savage hand-painted initials in burnished gold red blue or green. Printed in black and red. Front pastedown with red morocco bookplate of William Andrews Clark Jr.; front endleaves with evidence of bookplate and inscription removal. Tomkinson p. 76; Ransom p. 268; Franklin p. 200. A VERY FINE COPY clean bright and free of the splaying that very frequently afflicts the boards of this work. This is a most appealing example of the luxurious hand-crafted volumes produced under the auspices of the Essex House Press with our copy coming from the library of a noted Dryden collector. The book is the 11th from the Essex House series of 14 "Great Poems in the English Language" a group of lovely little works all printed on vellum and with delightful colored illustrations and historiated initials. Generally considered to be the best example in English of the choric hymn the present work is set at a feast given by Alexander the Great who finds himself entranced by the poet and lyrist Timotheus. The great leader is lost in reveries of exploits and victory he sighs and cries over battles lost and warriors slain and he finds inspiration for new conquests. Our printer C. R. Ashbee founded the Essex House Press in 1898 by purchasing the presses and other production equipment though not the type formerly owned by the Kelmscott Press which had shut down at the death of William Morris. Ashbee printed books for 12 years with vellum ink and paper identical to that used by Kelmscott in an effort to carry on the tradition Morris had established. But the Essex House Press because it was conceived of and continued as part of a larger enterprise involving various artisans at work in a group of workshops at Ashbee's Guild of Handicrafts located at Essex House in London's Mile End Road always had its own special identity a fact which Cave reflects when he calls it the "Arts and Crafts press 'par excellence.'" The illustrator here Reginald Savage fl. 1886-1904 is deemed by Houfe "a talented and imaginative designer and woodcut artist" and Houfe notes that he was also commended by his fellow illustrator Walter Crane 1845-1915 for his "weird designs." Former owner William Andrews Clark Jr. 1877-1934 put together one of the most distinguished collections of English and French literature of his day. He had strong holdings in many areas but especially in Shakespeare and the other Elizabethans in Dryden in Oscar Wilde and in the French drama. After a fire in his home in 1923 Clark constructed a separate fireproof building to house his collection; in 1926 this library building with its distinguished collection was deeded to the University of California and now serves as a prominent center for literary research.

Un volume in-8 (24 x 17 cm), broché, couverture illustrée, dans son étui cartonné avec motif gaufré au centre, tranches bleutées. 198 pages, illustrées de nombreuses reproductions d'oeuvres de l'artiste en noir et en couleurs.

Ouvrage publié à l'occasion de l'exposition du 1er avril au 29 octobre 2023 au Centre d'arts et de nature du Domaine de Chaumont-sur-Loire. En tête d'ouvrage, texte d'Alechinsky "Vadrouille à l'âge lithique", dans lequel l'artiste revient sur son rapport concret à l'imprimerie. « Aller à l'imprimerie, c'est comme pousser la porte du bistrot, quitter l'égocentrisme de l'atelier d'artiste pour retrouver les mordus, les habitués du comptoir lithographique. On respire l'odeur de l'encre. On piétine le même plancher » (Ambidextre, 2019). Né en 1927 en Belgique, Pierre Alechinsky est une figure marquante de l'art contemporain, membre fondateur du groupe Cobra. Bel exemplaire, comme neuf, de cette édition originale.

ref. 7488Undated: early nineteenth century. On one side each of two leaves of thin laid paper quality of tissue. Both leaves are good: lightly creased and spotted on aged paper. The first leaf roughly 19 x 18 cm carries six illustrations arranged 2 x 3 and with the captions reading: 'Price 2s/6d a way of purifying sea water'; 'Price 1s/6d preparation Acid Sulphuric'; 'Price of block 1s/- Physician Galenical School'; 'Price 1/- cold still'; 'Price 1/- Pelican'; '2s/6d distillation'. Printers blue pencil around third woodcut. The second leaf roughly 24 x 18.5 cm carries four illustrations arranged 2 x 2 the largest two being roughly 8 x 6 cm. The captions read: 'Bufonites' from the 'Hortus Sanitatis' of 1497 showing a man extracting a bezoar stone from the head of a frog; 'preparation medicinal earths'; 'obtaining draconites' and 'Hippocrates sleeve'. Along one margin: 'Please return specimens'. The 'Bufonites' engraving is certainly a skillful copy and it may be that the cuts were originally produced for a Roxburghe-Club-type publication before joining the printer's stock.

1900ref. 185953Leeds: Harrison & Waide c. 1900. Cough syrup hair dye tooth tincture and poison. An extensive collection of designs ranging from the 1870s through to the Edwardian era demonstrating the development of styles. The labels primarily refer to chemists' and druggists' products but also include advertisements and packaging for food and drink such as whiskey lemonade and curry powder. Operating as printers bookbinders and stationers Alfred Harrison and Thomas Waide commenced trading in 1878. They were based in Leeds an important printing hub of the period that was "second only to London. Leeds firms specialized in quality colour printing of everything from postcards to calendars and posters on tinplate as well as card and paper" Fraser p. 164. That "quality" is very much in evidence here exhibited by the huge range of styles for a vast array of products: rheumatic pellets and kidney pills hair restorer and wart paste castor oil and poisons with much else besides including wine and beer labels photographic developer and furniture polish. Harrison and Waide's firm was well-respected and they moved to successively larger premises until around 1909 when their partnership ended. The expansive nature of the business is indicated by the huge number of chemists who are named on the labels from all parts of Britain Ireland and even as far afield as India. Quarto 254 x 180 mm. Approximately 2000 printed labels mounted on 502 pp. of pink paper thumb index lettered in manuscript at front. With 8 "ordinary slip labels" loosely inserted. Recent dark brown quarter morocco black label dark green cloth sides. With 20th-century bookplate of Robert J. Hayhurst Lancashire pharmacist and businessman. Contents lightly soiled else in very good condition. Derek Fraser ed. A History of Modern Leeds 1980. hardcover
