$37.00
First Edition. William Morris and mass advertising? Moby Dick and marketing goals? Russian revolutionaries and commercial art? Monotype sans serif and corporate identity? Designers and printers as celebrities? Case studies in literary, business, and cultural history, 1900-1940. This book "examines how theories of mass society first appeared as developments in the commercial sector; how artists, poets, writers, graphic designers, and illustrators contributed to the modern literary economy; how those in the publicity trades relied on an audience whose "childish faith" in words seemed nearly universal; and how the business imagination shaped certain ideas in twentieth-century culture." (author's preface). The case studies in "this volume illustrate that process where the meaning of a public text is negotiated, as it took place among aesthetic revolutionaries... the imagist poets...the new typographers at British Monotype...the printers of R.R. Donnelly's 'definitive' New American Books, and Macy's marketing of the 'Limited' Editions Club." (p.192) This book offers an interesting perspective on printing and typography, book design and illustration, and modernism and publishing during an era of great change.

First edition. In post-World War I America, a world teeming with magazines, newspapers, radio broadcasts, and movies, many feared that the survival of traditional, serious books was in peril. This concern led to a publishing boom in fine editions--books valued primarily for their beauty, craftsmanship, extravagance, or scarcity. Beauty and the Book is a lively cultural history of the explosion in demand for these deluxe books during the 1920s and 1930s. The author combines new archival research with a close examination of 300 fine editions of the period, showing the interplay between the ideal and real nature of fine publishing, as well as the complex nature of American cultural ambitions during this pivotal era. Illustrated.

This book is one of the very few authorities that can be described as essential to anyone interested in the history of printed books in the era of hand printing.

McKerrow evokes and analyses the manner by which books were printed and authors' texts were thereby brought before the public. Readable, practical, informative and constantly suggestive, McKerrow has inspired generations of work since. In the extensive new introduction David McKitterick, Fellow
and Librarian of Trinity College, Cambridge writes: "McKerrow's work, humane, alert to many an unresolved question remains an inspiration - to the beginner and more advanced 'student' alike."

$35.00
First edition, limited to 300 numbered copies of which this is one of 250 bound in paper. Printed letterpress by Henry Morris at his Bird & Bull Press. This strange but true tale started in 1979 when Henry Morris added an invented reference book to the lengthy list of cited reference books printed in the back of NAGASHIZUKI, a book authored by Timothy Barrett and printed by Henry Morris. It took five years for the author and Sid Berger to finally notice this bit of Morris humor. The conspiracy began! Morris was shown a photocopy of an actual title page (in reality done in type by Paul Duensing) that showed that the book actually existed. Morris was taken in hook, line and sinker. But the story now continues: you must read it to see how! With tipped-in wine label, book covers, and photograph of a papermill that became part of the story. Extra wine label printed by Henry Morris loosely inserted in the back. And you thought the Fortsas Hoax was interesting. Wait until you read about this one.

$295.00
First edition, limited to 215 numbered copies. Set in Perpetua and printed by letterpress on Johannot mould made paper by Henry Morris at the Bird & Bull Press. Italian block-printed papers were the start of the collection of decorated papers that Tanya Schmoller, and her husband Hans, gathered together for over twenty years. The use of woodblocks to transfer designs to cloth and paper can be traced back in Europe to the fourteenth century. In the region of what is now Italy there were several firms supplying these colorful papers, the most eminent being the firm of Remondini which was established in 1650. This work traces the history of the Remondini enterprise and also that of Giuseppe Rizzi who took over the Remondini woodblocks after 1861. It examines the sales techniques and production methods of these two firms and contains actual specimens of Rizzi decorated paper. Today such samples are rarely found and they are usually very expensive. The illustrations include a three-color facsimile of a Remondini woodblock and a fold-out reproduction of a decree authorizing the sale of gilt paper. There are also four pages of genuine Rizzi paper samples.

The collector, art dealer and publisher of artbooks and illustrated works Ambroise Vollard (1867-1939) was an acquaintance of Picasso and commissioned artworks from him for various publications. These 100 etchings were commissioned by Vollard around 1930 for the Suite Vollard, which appeared in the late 30's in a limited edition of about 300 copies. The majority deal with the sculptor's studio, or the minotaur, and are mostly line drawings. Per introduction, "the neo-classical manner developed in these works...was to run like a red thread through all of Picasso's successive styles." The binding of this copy is somewhat shaken with the spine faded; the slipcase is cracked at the bottom, and soiled.

First edition. For over forty years, Anthony Hobson has occupied a commanding position in the world of books. Succeeding his father, G. D. Hobson, the great historian of bookbinding, as head of Sotheby's book department, he ran it for some twenty years with equal commercial skill and scholarly learning. Since then, he has established an independent reputation with a series of studies of bookbinding and the history of books generally concerning subjects in renaissance Italy. On the occasion of his seventieth birthday, a group of his friends decided to honor his achievements with a collection of essays. Twelve contributors have provided essays on bookbinding and the history of books. The subjects range from great collectors like Grolier, Mahieu, Anne de Montmorency, to bookbinding techniques and the book trade. In geographical scope there are essays on Ethiopic bookbinding, the Visconti Library at Milan, and British book collectors in Italy. The book has been edited by Dennis Rhodes who has also compiled a bibliography of Anthony Hobson's writings. This book is itself a notable contribution to the history of books, bookbinding, and the book trade. It celebrates the achievements of a life devoted to these subjects. SALES RIGHTS: Available in North & South America from Oak Knoll Books. Available outside North & South America from Edizioni Valdonega.

$65.00
The Bowyer ledgers, kept by William Bowyer, father and son, between 1710 and 1777, offer vast new information concerning authorship, book production and book distribution in eighteenth-century London. They are among the few surviving from this period and for London, the center of the British book trade. More than 5,000 works by some 1,000 authors were commissioned by some 500 customers, including booksellers, institutions and private gentlemen, and were produced by several hundreds of workmen. Copies were delivered to more than 1,500 persons, members of the trade or representatives of the reading public at large. The ledgers record what happened to the text as it moved through the printing house, noting paper, types, format, corrections, number printed and the like. This edition of the Bowyer ledgers presents the records themselves in photo-facsimile on microfiche, accompanied by a volume of editorial material. The microfiches reproduce the four surviving ledgers and associated papers, prefixed with detailed descriptions of the originals. The set of 70 microfiches are not present.

First edition. This is the first comprehensive bibliography on American author Kay Boyle. The political active Boyle was one of the so-called "Lost Generation" of American expatriate writers in Europe between the World Wars. She traveled in the literary circles of James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway and Gertrude Stein. She wrote fourteen novels, nine short story collections, three children's books, five collections of poetry and two collections of essays. The gifted writer was awarded two Guggenheim Fellowships and was a member of the American Academy of Art. The Academy recognized Boyle for her "extraordinary contribution to contemporary American literature over a lifetime of creative work." For Clark Chambers, the author of this bibliography, the challenge of researching this work has been a labor of love for more than ten years. We are proud to add it to our Winchester Bibliographies of 20th Century Writers series. Co-published with St. Paul's Bibliographies.

This is one of the best accounts of early American bookselling, printing and publishing.

$95.00
First edition. This comprehensive bibliography describes the American cookbooks in the Gernon Collection housed at the Lilly Library. AMERICAN BOOKS and its British/European counterpart, A MATTER OF TASTE, fully describe over 2,300 works in gastronomic literature and are testaments to the collecting achievements of Dr. and Mrs. John Talbot Gernon. The collection was donated to the Lilly Library in 1979 by Dr. and Mrs. Gernon, and their European collection of cookbooks were added in 1984. A MATTER OF TASTE, which describes the collection's British and European works, was published in 1990. The Gernon Collection also includes books on agriculture and gardening, brewing, distilling and wine-making, health and diet, household management, and the operation of restaurants and hotels. Famous American cookbooks include a first edition of Amelia Simmons' AMERICAN COOKERY (1796), a second edition of Mary Randolph's THE VIRGINIA HOUSEWIFE (1825), Robert Roberts' THE HOUSE SERVANT'S DIRECTORY (1827), the first book by an African-American to be commercially published; and Eliza Leslie's SEVENTY-FIVE RECEIPTS FOR PASTRY, CAKES, AND SWEETMEATS (1828) among many others. The publication of A MATTER OF TASTE marked a closure for Dr. Gernon regarding British and European cookbooks, but it encouraged his interest in American books, which he continued to purchase and donate to the Library until his declining health took its toll. His last gift was the first edition of Elizabeth Kirkland's SIX LITTLE COOKS (1877) in May 1993. However, the Lilly Library has been able to add over 300 more American works since the Gernon collection first arrived. In addition to rare and famous cookbooks, the collection's depth and breadth are also of great importance. Many 19th-century popular works are represented in multiple editions, providing bibliographers and culinary historians with publishing histories of these books. Since the collection documents many aspects of culinary customs and traditions, it also provides a social history of the United States. Books on food and drink from the 18th and early 19th centuries and the early years of this country originated mostly from America or Britain. European cooking, including German, Swedish, Czech, and Polish, was only introduced after 1840 when upheavals overseas brought these new cultures into American society. Regional tastes such as New England, Southern and, Southwestern are also represented. Illustrated.

$36.00
First edition. In the early nineteenth century the prevailing influence in children's books was the promotion of morality, coupled with instruction, and fairy-tales and such-like improper subjects were widely discouraged. So Benjamin Tabart showed no little courage when, within three years of opening his Juvenile Library in Bond Street, he launched out into the publication of a series of well-produced fairy-tales and nursery stories.
During his short publishing career he continued to provide
children's bookshelves with light-hearted, attractive-looking books for which he employed excellent artists and some of the best children's writers of the day. Many of his publications are now very scarce but Marjorie Moon has recorded about a hundred and ninety titles (often in several editions) which have survived the hazards of nursery life. Since Mr. Tabert was not only a publisher, but also a bookseller, part two of this bibliography includes other titles which he advertized as being on sale in his shop.
An introduction discussing Tabart's publishing career, his
family life, and the very close connection between Tabart and the prolific publisher, Sir Richard Phillips, is included. Brian Alderson has contributed an appendix on the illustrating of two of Tabart's picture-books, and another appendix reprints William Goodwin's remarkable preface to his book of Bible stories which so horrified Mrs. Trimmer, the self-appointed critic of Georgian children's reading matter.

$85.00
First edition. John Newbery is famous among 18th-century publishers for the manner in which he exploited the new market for children's books. Both in the creation of a "list" of successful titles and in his very individual approach to the designing, publicizing, and selling of his "little books," he shows himself to be an important forerunner of the specialist children's book publisher. In this bibliographical study of the publishing activity of Newbery and his successors, Sydney Roscoe takes pains to supply as complete a record as possible of these children's books in their various editions with notes on the locations of copies known today. He has also provided a detailed introduction, giving the background to the firm's work, together with three important appendices on special problems that have arisen in compiling the bibliography. A title checklist is included of the many books for adults with whose publication the firm is known to have been associated. The appendices contain notes on bindings and printers and booksellers who worked near Pater Noster Row. This volume also contains fifty-three text figures and is illustrated with thirty-two pages of plates.

A collection of practical hints drawn from Sir Thomas Cockaine's (b.ca. 1519) own experience, differing from the usual emphais on technique and ritual that were French in origin. The social revolution of Tudor and Elizabethan times created a demand for books on sport among the new gentry. "Why you know an a man have not skill in the hawking and hunting languages now-a-days, I'll not give a rush for him...He is for no gallant's company without them" (Ben Jonson, "Every Man in His Humour"). Illustrated. Some rubbing spine ends.

The techniques and approaches fostered in the first half of this century by the "New Bibliography" have spread throughout the world, developing and expanding in association with bodies such as the Bibliographical Societies of Britain and America. These essays, specially commissioned for this book, take "New Bibliography" into the 21st century. Surveying bibliographic and textual studies in some thirty fields, they discuss major issues and developments. Areas covered include manuscript studies and the analysis of handwriting; the physical characteristics of the book - its paper, type, and binding; enumerative and descriptive bibliography, incunabula, cartography, book illustration, book catalogues, and the Stationers' Company. This work also discusses bibliographical developments in the history of science and in many countries - the British Isles, France, Germany, Italy, North America, Japan and Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Developments in the theory and practice of editing texts (including biblical texts); the history of the book and the implications of the computer for bibliography are also focused on in this volume. These essays open possible research proposals by students and scholars, ensuring the vitality of bibliography in to the next century. This collections provide a landmark, taking stock of developments in a vast and vital area of study, and maps out its future parameters.

$45.00
First edition, one of 50 copies signed by Sims and printed on French Speckletone paper. Also differs from trade edition but being in a slighty larger binding and in black cloth not green. Jack Quinn, a rare book dealer, is asked to discover what happened to the papers of Gerald Despain, a fanatical anti-Semite and British traitor who flew to Germany on the outbreak of war in September 1939 in order to join the Nazis. This inquiry sets Quinn off on a picaresque quest in which he questions a highly successful art dealer, a devious auctioneer's clerk, the widow of a very wealthy Conservative MP and a much decorated British general. Full of intrigue, this book takes the reader on a journey to Kenya in the 1930's, a time when "the Wanhohi river ran with cocktails and Cocaine was taken like snuff in the Happy Valley." As Quinn's enquiries continue, three cold-blooded murders occur, all of which are connected with Despain. Quinn persists with his quest, little realizing that it may put him in the way of danger. Author George Sims, member of the Crime Writers' Association and the Detection Club, has been a dealer in rare books and manuscripts and, like Jack Quinn, had a London office for some years. He has written twelve suspense novels and three books of essays.

427. (Dibdin, Thomas Frognall) Windle, John and Karma Pippin. THOMAS FROGNALL DIBDIN 1776-1847: A BIBLIOGRAPHY. New Castle, Delaware: Oak Knoll Press, 1999, 8vo., cloth. 309 pages.
$85.00
First edition. This is the definitive bibliography of one of the most influential figures in the annals of 19th-century book collecting. Dibdin was the self-proclaimed "father of bibliomania" and founder of the legendary Roxburghe Club. With his great love for books, he visited and studied the foremost collections in Great Britain and Europe. Dibdin's writings give today's collectors a unique window into early 19th-century collecting. Dibdin's books have appealed to many of the greatest of English and American collectors, especially inspiring the giants of 19th-century collecting to high levels of enthusiasm for early books and manuscripts. If it were not for this interest, many of these works would not have been saved and preserved, and the world of book collecting would certainly be different today. The most lavish of Dibdin's works, THE BIBLIOGRAPHICAL DECAMERON, marked the "highwater mark of Dibdin bibliomania," stated William A. Jackson, author of THOMAS FROGNALL DIBDIN, AN ANNOTATED LIST. However, one of Dibdin's most extraordinary achievements may have been THE LIBRARY COMPANION as "history's most voluminous exponent of footnote-authorship as a literary genre in itself," as described by Renato Rabaiotti in HORAE BIBLIOGRAPHICAE CANTABRIGIENSES. Today, this work is still endearing to Dibdin's devotees for its irrepressible flow of idiosyncratic and obscure anecdotes - that is, at least for those who are not bothered by Dibdin's bibliographical inaccuracies. And yet, these inaccuracies have become irrelevant for many 20th-century collectors in the desire to collect Dibdin's works. A growing interest in books by Dibdin has reached levels where collectors need to know if copies under consideration are complete. This new bibliography will inspire new collectors to begin collecting, intermediate collectors to improve their holdings, and advanced collectors, librarians, and book specialists to review and expand their collections as they will feel necessary.
