réf. 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.

1957réf. 4856Plaistow London United Kingdom: George Rainbird in association with Michael Joseph 1957. hardcover. Near Fine. Joyce Cary. Publication: London George Rainbird in association with Michael Joseph 1957 Formatting: 8vo pp. x 333. Condition Report: Near Fine. The original publisher’s marbled boards remain bright clean and tight displaying virtually no shelf-wear to the extremities. The red morocco spine label is intact with unoxidised brilliant gilt tooling while the spine itself shows only the slightest barely perceptible trace of the uniform sunning typical of this edition. The binding is remarkably firm and the text block is exceptionally crisp; internally the pages are uniformly bright and completely free of spotting or foxing complemented by a vibrant red top-stain. The accompanying slipcase matching the marbled paper design remains structurally entirely sound with only faint superficial rubbing to the edges and minor surface scuffing. Catalogue Note: This limited edition restricted to 1500 copies of which this is number 506 was designed according to the express wishes of the author shortly before his death. A highly regarded production printed at the esteemed Curwen Press this memorial edition features a frontispiece self-portrait printed directly from a plate lithographed by the author alongside eight additional illustrations reproduced by photo-litho-offset from Cary’s original pencil drawings. Significantly the text includes The Old Strife at Plant's a discarded chapter from the original manuscript offering a unique textual variant not found in standard trade copies. The elegant binding was executed by Mansell's of London with title-page and spine lettering beautifully engraved by John Woodcock. It remains an uncommon and highly desirable collector's piece on the open market particularly when found complete with its fragile slipcase in such well-preserved condition. Considered one of the finest English novels written about the artistic temperament The Horse's Mouth follows the brilliant larcenous and utterly irrepressible painter Gulley Jimson as he navigates the streets of London in a relentless quest for money and inspiration. Jimson’s visionary genius and appetite for self-destruction collide in a narrative that is both uproariously funny and profoundly moving painting a vivid portrait of a man consumed by the terrible beauty of his own creative drive.
