1983réf. ABE-11593720982Patrick Hardy London 1983 Superb unread looking copy of this large sized hardback book which reproduces the celebrated Edward Aedizzone's Christmas cards. A wonderful and much loved artist and this is a particularly well made tribute. The jacket is perfect and it is protected inside a mylar sleeve. Virtually an as new copy there is a slight smudge on one page which looks like a printing mark Anyway I only mention this because sometimes in a small run production like this you do get insignificant 'proofing' marks. It is a fairly hard book to find in such a collectable state as this. Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng. 1st Edition. Hardcover. As New/As New.

2009réf. ABE-1487242017999FANTAGRAPHICS 2009 Hard to find in the UK this splendid and weird book introduces a great talent. This is the first publication of the Dutch fantasy artist and it is a refreshing change from all the contemporary unskilled politicised 'art' we see in the galleries. Hers is skill based. She can draw paint and sculpt. And as of this is not enough she adds wit! This copy has a tiny amount of wear at the cloth bound corners but it does have the vertical sash encircling the rear board cover. Fantagraphics used this sash instead of a conventional dustjacket. Make sure the copy you buy has this sash; it is essential for the serious collector. Language: eng. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. FANTAGRAPHICS hardcover

2011réf. ABE-1600961381927Enitharmon Press ENGLAND 2011 Geoffrey Hill's Clavics was published as an installment of Daybooks. Hill's subject matter is often hard to disentangle but that's my fault; it is not his. I have rarely found him as approachable as other poets but then up pops an instance where something stirs under the density and change happens. His poems can be allusive dissonant and yet playful as Finnegans Wake. Many poets deploy surface difficulty Guy Davenport called it false density to mask essential emptiness; but when Hill is difficult it is because he has something to say that cannot be said glibly. He rewards attentive readers. This fabulous and perfect signed limited edition is number 49 of ONLY 100 copies. It is signed by the author on the half-title. There is a splendid photographic illustration inset to the front cover and two other illustrations from historical sources within the book. Beautifully cloth bound in a matching slipcase it is emphatically signed by the Author and now VERY RARE INDEED. Signed by Author. Limited Edition. Hardcover. New. Enitharmon Press ENGLAND hardcover
