Front pastedowns with bookplate of Haven O'More the Garden Collection. In pristine condition. This is the deluxe copy of a comprehensive survey of Gill's work as an engraver and typecutter prepared as a labor of love by his nephew Christopher Skelton. Glaister describes Eric Gill 1882-1940 as "an English craftsman engraver type designer sculptor and philosopher whose influence on contemporary book production has been profound and world-wide." Gill studied lettering as a young man under Edward Johnston then for five years beginning in 1905 designed and engraved title pages and initials for books printed by Count Harry Kessler at Insel Verlag Leipzig Kessler would go on to found the Cranach Press in 1913. Later Gill did a great deal of woodcut illustration for other private press publications especially the Golden Cockerel Press including memorable work for the famous "Four Gospels" "Troilus and Criseyde" and "Canterbury Tales". The 993 illustrations in the body of the present offering and the 51 in the appendix include all of the wood engravings from those works as well as Gill's other book illustrations individual engravings typefaces Christmas cards and bookplates. The subjects for the most part are either religious or erotic--and sometimes controversially both. The portfolio prints are "A Garden Enclosed" "Self-portrait" "Surrexit Alleluia" "Tree and Dog with Flames" "St. Thomas's Hands" "Girl with a Mirror" "I Am a Little World" and "Man and Woman Embracing." Skelton 1925-92 learned printing from Gill's son-in-law René Hague and operated a private press from 1968 to 1985. This is the magnum opus of that workshop. This copy comes from the Garden Collection assembled by Haven O'More with funding from Michael Davis which was the most outstanding library of notable books put together in America in the second half of the 20th century. When it was auctioned by Sotheby's in 1989 the sale brought in $16.2 million. The library included high spots from all periods the four Shakespeare folios the first of "Don Quixote" and Blake's "Songs of Innocence and Experience" brought in more than $5 million alone and the collection was breathtaking in its impeccable condition.

I think I've reached the point that I'm convinced enough of the reality of the ET presence and I'm not going to deny it and shy away from it. It is time to open this up to the public." - Edgar Mitchell Interesting eight book archive from the personal collection of Astronaut and Moonwalker Edgar Mitchell. All books on the subject of psychic exploration which Mitchell was famously involved in. Late in 1973 and early 1974 Mitchell co-founded the Institute for Noetic Science. The Institute conducts research on topics such as spontaneous remission meditation consciousness alternative healing practices consciousness-based healthcare spirituality human potential psychic abilities psychokinesis and survival of consciousness after bodily death. Edgar Mitchell was widely recognized for his public stance on the existence of UFO's and the powers of the mind. He believed that the bridging of science and the power of the human mind represented the key to our discovering the worlds outside our own. The subject of Noetic Science has flourished of late thanks to it's use in Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol" which was published in 2009. No longer considered "fringe" science by most Mitchell was one of the early believers in the powers of meditation and collective thought.
