(King, Jessie M.) White, Colin A GUIDE TO THE PRINTED WORK OF JESSIE M. KING.
With the CD "Illustrations: Supplement to the Book" New Castle and London Oak Knoll Press and the British Library 2007 7 x 10 inches cloth, dust jacket. 230 pages plus 8 pages of plates
Jessie M. King (1875-1949) was the foremost Scottish book designer and illustrator of the 20th century. Her work reflected the mixture of Symbolism and Arts & Crafts practiced by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the others of "The Four" in Glasgow where she was trained. During the 50 years of her career she designed and illustrated some 250 books, over 100 greeting cards, bookplates and assorted items of ephemera.

A Guide to the Printed Work of Jessie M. King attempts to bring order to this enormous output. Every known item has been annotated, classified and catalogued, and a further section lists over 100 publications containing reproductions of other works by the artist. An appendix by Dr. A.D. Portno discusses her work for the German publishers, Globus. A second appendix investigates her designs for Routledge's series of children's classics.

In order to do justice to Jessie M. King's talent, besides the selection of items illustrated in the book, a substantial part of her work is illustrated in color on an accompanying CD-Rom. On the CD, every significant item is present, with each illustration numbered according to the corresponding entry in the text.

Colin White is an art historian specializing in the early 20th century. His published works include biographies of Edmund Dulac and Jessie M. King and a history of objects of artistic interest found in nurseries. He is at work on a biography of Kay Nielsen. He has written books on Sentimentality in Art, Decorative Headpieces and Tailpieces, and one on the influence of the Japanese No on the plays of W.B. Yeats. He has published articles on the bookplates of Jessie M. King and of Edward Ardizzone, as well as a survey for the Wolfson Foundation of the art of Thomas Mackenzie.

Ray, Gordon N THE ART DECO BOOK IN FRANCE.
Edited by Tanselle, G. Thomas. Printed by Heritage Letterpress of Charlotte, North Carolina. Charlottesville, VA Bibliographical Society of the University of Virginia 2005 6" x 9" cloth 159 pages
When Gordon Ray delivered the Lyell Lectures at Oxford in 1985, he chose as his subject the Art Deco book illustrations and bindings produced in France in the 1920s. This topic was not a surprising choice, for he had previously written magisterial annotated catalogues, largely based on his own collection, of British illustrated books from 1790 to 1914 and of French illustrated books from 1700 to 1914. His Lyell Lectures formed a natural continuation of the latter and gave him the opportunity to express his views on still another area in which, through his collecting and research, he had become expert. He accompanied his lectures with 183 slides, the majority of them in color, and those illustrations are in fact the reason that the lectures have not been published until now: the expense of producing so many illustrations was too daunting for the publishers that Ray approached.
Today a happy solution to this problem is available in the form of digital presentation on the internet, and Ray's work is now being offered in a combination of printed and electronic forms. The verbal text of his lectures is letterpress printed in this present volume (supplemented by eight plates, showing striking examples of the work of the major figures discussed), and all of the available illustrations are being published on the website of the Bibliographical Society of the University of Virginia.

Printed on Cougar Opaque Natural paper in an exact digital replica of Caslon Old Face, the type most often associated with Updike, as well as margins and spacing between words and lines that are approximately what he himself used.

Webster, Edward PRINT UNCHAINED: FIFTY YEARS OF DIGITAL PRINTING, 1950-2000 AND BEYOND - A SAGA OF INVENTION AND ENTERPRISE.
West Dover, VT Dra of Vermont, Inc. (2000) oblong 4to. cloth, dust jacket xv, (iii), 253+(1) pages
First edition. Written to fill a perceived gap in technology history, the author seeks not only to document but also to celebrate the role digital printing has taken in the dissemination of ideas and images. Containing background and instructional material, Part One first examines the roots of digital printing and then the various technologies, applications and broad changes in both the products and the industry over the fifty years from 1950 to 2000. In Part Two, each decade is closely examined by focusing on one or two industry-changing companies, following their contributions from their inception to the present day. From Adobe to Xerox, from IBM and GE to Dataproducts and Printronix, the stories of these entrepreneurs and managers who helped make this revolution happen unfold, many times in their own words. A review of the patterns and lesson learned and a look into the future of digital printing comprise Part Three, followed by a glossary, a bibliography and an index. There are, of course, numerous black-and-white and color illustrations.
