BRITISH PRIVATE PRESS PROSPECTUSES, 1891-2001.
by Butcher, David
Limited to 350 numbered copies of which this is one of the 260 bound thus. The development of the private press in Britain during the twentieth century is traced through this collection of prospectuses that come from both famous and not so famous publishers. As the books they represent become rarer and more expensive, the prospectuses, which can offer fascinating clues to the development of the titles they promote, are becoming collectible items themselves. Frontispiece is a wood-engraving by Eric Ravilious for the cover of the Golden Cockerel Press' Autumn List 1931. Includes 16 colored plates and three facsimile prospectuses inserted in a pocket in the back board.
