1799réf. B5768T. Chapman publisher; T. Gillet printer Salisbury-Square c. 1799. A fine and handsome example with plates and text clean and crisp. . Edition: Second Edition. Binding: Expertly rebacked contemporary full calf preserving mottled calf boards gilt dentelled borders flanked by single and double filleted ruling; spine with five raised bands compartments with central gilt marine motifs and gilt lettered title on red morocco label on two; all edges uncut. Notes: Captain James Wilson 1760–1814 commanded the British ship Duff which the London Missionary Society contracted in 1797 to convey a team of missionariesto their posts in Tahiti Tonga and the Marquesas Islands. Wilson surveyed locations of numerous islands in the Pacific including Vanua Balavu Fulaga and Ogea Levu in Fiji Mangareva in the Gambier Islands Pukarua in the Tuamotus and Satawal Elato and Lamotrek in the Caroline Islands. Three years after the establishment of the British mission in Tahiti the directors of the Society appointed a committee to consider a suitable memorial for presentation to Wilson for his services in helping to establish the first mission in the South Seas. He published an account of his voyage: A Missionary Voyage to the Southern Pacific Ocean in 1799. “This voyage was undertaken by the London Missionary Society for the purpose of establishing a mission in Tahiti. A settlement of twenty-five persons was formed. The king of the Islands befriended them but they met with continual difficulties from the civil wars and finally had to flee to Australia returning however in 1815 to Tahiti…. Includes many valuable details regarding Tahiti the Fiji Islands the Marquesas etc. A new group of islands was found among the Santa Cruslands and named the Duff Group…. The account is of extraordinary interest for its fresh and sometimes naïve viewpoint and for its descriptions of customs passed over by the nautical and geographical explorer.” Cox II:307. “Almost certainly two printers were employed by Chapman in order to speed up the job of publishing this quarto. This edition printed by Gillet is sometimes called the second edition; however the terms ‘coarse-paper’ ‘small-paper’ or ‘laid paper edition’ would be more correct. One may refer to them as the Gosnell edition and the Gillet edition. The text in both printings is the same but the list of subscribers in each is completely different the Gosnell edition having twelve pages and the Gillet edition having only seven which are not alphabetized. A careful study of these lists gives the distinct impression that the Gosnell edition is the earlier and the more expensive volume. As in the Gosnell edition the Advertisement to this edition also states: ‘The body of the journal is the composition of Mr. William Wilson from the captain’s papers his own and the missionaries’ reports.’” Hill 1895 “The anonymous editor of this book was Dr. Thomas Haweis one of the founders of the London Missionary Society. The long “preliminary discourse” was anonymously written by Samuel Greatheed using the then-unpublished narrative of James Morrison one of the pardoned ‘Bounty’ mutineers. Morrison’s manuscript was also the source for the extensive appendix on Tahiti. Indeed William Wilson and James Morrison may be called co-authors of this book.” Hill 1894 Size: Large quarto 285x220. Illustration: Complete with 13 plates maps and chart all detailing the geography and scenery of South Pacific islands. All plates and maps are present but in an order differing from the book’s table of plates. References: National Maritime Museum I:632; Hill 1894-95; Cox II:307.

1924réf. 25021001London and Oxford: Ernest Benn Limited and Basil Blackwell printed by the Shakespeare Head Press Stratford-upon-Avon 1924. First and Limited Edition. Hardcover. Very good /fair. One of 500 copies large quarto size 60 pp. and 60 plates with original dust jacket and prospectus. Ernest William Gimson 1864-1919 is know as one of the greatest of the English architect-designers. "Today his reputation is securely established as one of the most influential designers of the English Arts and Crafts movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries" n.b. info and quote from Wiki. As with William Morris Gimson believed in working with his hands and making things that fit their purpose with beauty striving for a merger of the practical and the aesthetic. He obhorred things made by machine; doing one's work well as best as one could by hand was the lodestar of his life. Morris and Gimson became friends and Gimson designed a cottage for May Morris at Kelmscott. This work is a fitting tribute with opening essays by his friends two of whom provided line drawings to accompany the essays and sixty collotype plates printed by Emery Walker. This particular volume has an interesting association with the Ex-Libris of Rainforth Armitage Walker 1886-1960 based on a chapter heading illustration by Aubrey Beardsley in "Le Morte D'arthur". Per Mark Samuels Lasner in "The Bookplates of Aubrey Beardsley" p. 95 this Ex-Libris was not designed as an original bookplate by Beardsley only three of these are known but Walker had this Beardsley illustration printed as his Ex-Libris by Hugh Dent the printer of "Le Morte D'arthur". Walker was a an early fan and collector of the works of Beardsley and authored several books on the artist and his works. The subscriber list at the back of the book lists an "R.G. Walker" with an address in Bedford Park with the "G." crossed out in pencil; Rainforth Armitage Walker did live in Bedford so it is entirely possible the middle initial was a typo and it is in fact his name in the subscriber list. To add interest to this volume we have the original prospectus which as of this writing no other copies online have and the dust jacket see condition statement below as well as both the Errata slip and the spare paper spine label see description below. A prior owner perhaps R.A. Walker pasted into the book two reviews: the first from The Times Literary Supplement dated 17 April 1924 and the second from The London Mercury dated May 1924. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in quarter natural linen with paper spine label fore- and bottom edges uncut the Ex-Libris of R.A. Walker on the front pastedown the title page with one of the eight in-text line drawings see p. 9 "The Cottage at Sapperton: South Side" the limitation statement on the verso of the title page this copy no. 21 of 500 the Errata slip bound in between the limitation page and the Contents the three essays followed by the section of collotype plates "made from drawings by Ernest Gimson and photographs of his completed work" p. 35 following the plates is a "List of the Original Subscribers" which include among many others C.H. St J. Hornby W.R. Lethaby May Morris B.H. Newdigate A.R. Powys and Emery Walker tipped onto the rear pastedown is the spare spine label; Caslon type on Batchelor's Kelmscott Hand-made paper large quarto size the binding measures 12" by 8 3/4" pagination: i-iv v-vii 1 blank 1-46 1 blank 60 plates printed on rectos only i-v List of Subscribers. The prospectus consists of a single leaf 11 3/8" by 8 1/2" on one side is a mirror of the title page with a short announcement above "Ready in March. and the other side with standard prospectus information including at the bottom a short section which could be used to order the book. The dust jacket is quite simple the front panel with just the book's title and "Four guineas net" at the bottom the spine again with just the book's title and the back panel with the press device of the Shakespeare Head Press. ___CONDITION: Volume better than very good the boards clean although showing some offsetting from the binding glue the linen on the sides clean a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior bright and clean other than a few very light stray marks and collated complete; the corners bumped with minimal rubbing the spine discoloured foxing to the top edge of the text block toning to the uncut fore- and bottom edges offsetting to the endpapers the two contemporary reviews tipped onto the front free endpaper with toning and the flyleaf the gift inscription also on the front free endpaper see Provenance below. The prospectus also a bit better than very good with no markings and relatively little edgewear but with some unintended creases and toning. The dust jacket is fair only the spine portion missing large pieces and showing old damp-stains as well as sunning the rest of the jacket with overall edgewear. Even with the jacket's issues this volume still special due to its completeness including the prospectus and provenance. ___PROVENANCE: In addition to this volume being owned by Rainforth Armitage Walker see details above it was also owned at one time by Joy Rodney Marsh 1914-2002 and her husband Millar J.C. White he "a well-known Berkeley resident and homebuilder" n.b. info and quote from Joy's obit in SF Gate online. This per a gift inscription on the front free endpaper dated September 20 1948 - the year is difficult to read which reads thus: "To Joy and Millar / In appreciation of their great kindness upon our visit to Piedmont / Wishing them every happiness / Recine and Ogar ". ___CITATION: Ransom Shakespeare Head Press no. 31 p. 12. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

réf. 17383London: The Sophistocles Press. 1929. First trade edition. First trade edition. Publisher's original pink card wrappers with title printed in black. Illustrated with 7 black and white full-page drawings by Beresford Egan. A near very good copy the binding firm with dust soiling to the covers wear to the extremities and chipping to the spine. The contents with a previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown foxing to the endpapers and the occasional mark to page margins are otherwise in good order. The drawings remain clean and bright. Percy Reginald Stephensen 1901-1965 was an Australian writer publisher and political activist first for the Communists and later for far-right groups. In this satirical work he mocks the Conservative politician Sir William Joynson-Hicks who was well-known for his authoritarianism his campaigns against Communism and his attempts to clamp down on nightclubs and what he saw as the indecent literature of the roaring twenties or what he termed "the flood of filth coming across the Channel". Notably he was heavily implicated in the banning of Radclyffe Hall's lesbian novel The Well of Loneliness 1928 as well as in forcing the publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover in an expurgated version. As D.H. Lawrence was a good friend of Stephensen this was perhaps part of the reason for the present satire. Egan's drawings greatly influenced by the work of Aubrey Beardsley and imbued with the spirit of 1920s decadence provide the perfect riposte to Joynson-Hick's reactionary moralising.
