Reprint of the scarce first edition of 1921 printed by John Henry Nash, which was limited to 150 numbered copies (Besterman 5128).

The lengthy introduction by A.W. Pollard deals mostly with Morris and his influence. Morris' "Notes" on the founding of the Kelmscott Press precede the Kelmscott listings; Cobden-Sanderson's farewell to the Doves ("Salve Aeternum Aeternumque Vale") precedes the Doves listing. A typical entry includes author and title, colophon transcription, physical description, edition statement, collation, information on printing and illustrations, and references.

Cloud, Gerald W. JOHN RODKER'S OVID PRESS: A BIBLIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY
New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2010 7 x 10 inches hardcover, dust jacket 152 pages
This book is primarily a bibliographical study of all the known works printed and published by John Rodker (1894-1955) at the Ovid Press, London, 1919-1922, and the associated projects connected to his second imprint, the Casanova Society. The Ovid Press's output was not prolific - 17 known items were produced - but the nature of the works and the context in which they were created reveals a great deal about both Rodker and several central figures of modernist literature and art, including T.S. Eliot, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Ezra Pound, and Edward Wadsworth.

The book's introduction includes a biographical account of Rodker's life, focusing especially on his early life and his printing activities at the Ovid Press, which he operated with some participation from his then wife, the British novelist Mary Butts (1890-1937). Relying heavily on correspondence and other archival sources, such as Rodker's personal and professional papers and his diary, the introduction documents the production of many of the Ovid Press titles and Rodker's interaction with his authors.

The descriptive bibliography, which follows the introductory matter, includes full collations, detailed, copy-specific notes on each item, institutional locations for Ovid Press publications, and attempts to reconcile the discrepancies between Rodker's colophon statements and the books he actually printed-based on careful analysis of extant copies of Ovid Press titles. The book accounts for a number of unrecorded bibliographical details in these works and clarifies Rodker's role in the production of Ezra Pound's "Bel Esprit" and the errata sheets for Joyce's Ulysses (Egoist Press/John Rodker, 1922).

Gerald W. Cloud is Curator for Literature in Columbia University's Rare Book & Manuscript Library and Lecturer in English and Comparative Literature at Columbia where he teaches Bibliography and the History of the Book. He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Delaware (2005) and has served as a lab instructor for "Introduction to the Principles of Bibliographical Description" at Rare Book School, University of Virginia since 2004.

Scarborough John Cole et al. 1824 8vo. original paper-covered boards, paper spine label, top edge cut, other edges uncut, preserved in a modern cloth box. (ii), iv, 92+(1) pages.
First edition, limited to 100 copies. Signed by the author on the verso of the dedication page.

(Michael Sadleir's Archdeacon Francis Wrangham 1769-1842. Oxford Bibl. Soc., 1937). From the library of John William Clay with his bookplate. Original paper wrappers worn along edges and hinges.

2 volumes. London Joseph Lilly 1865 8vo. original quarter calf over green cloth. xiii,xlvi,555; (ii),593 pages.
A bibliographic work of the critic, scholar, bibliographer, and forger John Payne Collier (1789-1883). Besterman 917; Sabin xxxvi. Collier's major fraud was his 1852 "Notes and Emendations to Shakespeare," based on marginalia, purportedly by contemporaries of Shakespeare, "discovered" by him in a 1632 folio of Shakespeare (which he kept from scrutiny); Collier, a competent Shakespeare scholar, presumably saw this not as forgery but as the correction of a lamentable lack of documentary evidence supporting the correct understanding of Shakespeare. This bibliography is based on an 1837 catalogue by Collier of the Earl of Ellesmere's collection (the "Bridgewater catalogue"), and lists about 750 works of the 16th and 17th centuries. Fairly brief bibliographic descriptions are frequently followed by lengthy annotations with short excerpts. In the preface, Collier alludes to a lack of good relations with the British Museum (he had quarreled with Panizzi) as a reason for the relative lack of British Museum holdings in his listings (a bibliographic limitation not noted on the title page!), asserts that he has duly credited other bibliographic sources, and that he has personally examined every book "the merits and peculiarities of which are discussed in these volumes," which may seem a little equivocal. With an alphabetical index for both volumes at the end of vol. II. Leather rubbed along hinges and wear at spine ends with part of leather missing at top of the spine of volume 2..
