ref. 20110909San Francisco: The Press in Tuscany Alley 1994. First and Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine. One of 75 copies unnumbered elephant folio size 156 pp. with numerous specimens in a custom box with prospectus and "El Paso keepsake" signed by James Linden. A tour de force of the ephemeral printing of the inimitable Adrian Wilson who with his wife Joyce Lancaster Wilson produced some of the finest and interesting private press work in San Francisco during the second half of the 20th century. The Press in Tuscany Alley was one of San Francisco's small private press jewels. Adrian Wilson 1924-1988 was both a book designer and a scholar authoring "The Design of Books" which is regarded as a classic text on book design. As the New York Times stated in his obituary: "Mr. Wilson designed and printed scores of books and became a mentor to younger men and women eager to learn the printer's craft. His many volumes while little-known to the general public are famous among print connoisseurs and many are collector's items." This spectacular work pays homage to the ephemeral work of Adrian Wilson in which both his perfection of technique and whimsicality shine through. Housed in a custom slipcase are first a volume which contains the bibliographical information on Wilson's ephemera; not only does it present tipped-in specimens but almost every page has either a printed and coloured cut or an illustration which has been hand-coloured. Second is a folding box which is stuffed with samples of the ephemera over forty pieces by our count. For any aficionado of private press printing this work is a bounty of both information and visual delight. ___DESCRIPTION: The volume is bound in natural linen boards Adrian Wilson's signature debossed in blind on the front board paper label on the spine fore-edge uncut bottom edge rough-cut a single piece of ephemera loosely laid in at the front half-title in red with a green cut frontis a black-and-white photograph of Wilson examining a sheet in his printing studio title page in red and black sectional headings and page numbers in red throughout a mulitiplicity of specimens and illustrations throughout signed and dated in pencil by James Linden at the colophon; designed and hand-coloured by James Linden text in Janson on Rives Heavyweight with end-papers of a special J.

Dust jacket rubbed and a bit foxed with just a few short tears to the rear panel. Overall a very appealing copy of Joyce's only play. Exiles captures the romantic dramas of Richard and Bertha a common-law couple recently returned to their home country of Ireland and the complex dynamics that play out between them Richard's cousin Robert and Robert's wife Beatrice. "The play was not especially popular at the time and is commonly regarded as one of Joyce's weaker works. However much of the initial criticism may have had to do with the play's provocative themes: unconventional relationships jealousy weakened national ties to Ireland and exile. All of these topics resonate with Joyce's personal life making Exiles a partly autobiographical work" James Joyce Foundation. After W.B. Yeats refused to stage the play Joyce unsuccessfully attempted to interest theatrical companies throughout England Ireland and the United States. Exiles eventually debuted in German translation in Munich in 1919. Of the premiere Joyce wrote: "Complete fiasco. Row in theatre. Play withdrawn. Author invited but not present.Thank God" Morgan Library. The play was not performed in English until a staging at New York's Neighborhood Playhouse in 1925. Slocum & Cahoon 15.
