One of only 60 copies of the Museum Edition

(Pyle, Howard) Davis, Paul Preston HOWARD PYLE: HIS LIFE -- HIS WORK
2 volumes. New Castle and Wilmington Oak Knoll Press and The Delaware Art Museum 2004 9 x 12 inches. quarter Morocco with Japanese cloth, a special binding by Campbell-Logan Bindery (viii),xiv,(ii),400; (viii),401-872 pages.
First edition, one of only 60 numbered and signed sets bound thus (Museum Edition). Contains an extra eight-page signature at the beginning which has a tipped-in wood-engraving of Pyle's well-known painting "The Landing of the Pilgrims" pulled from the original block engraved by Robert Hoskin of Harper & Brothers. The engraving was published in the April 1883 edition of Harper's New Monthly magazine. In addition, this special section discusses the print and includes the colophon. The section was printed on Mohawk Superfine by Leonard Seastone at his Tideline Press. At the dawn of the 20th century, Howard Pyle was America's most famous and influential illustrator. Through the illustrated pages of Harper's, Scribner's, and Century magazines, the American public first became acquainted with the illustrator that they would come to love. Both by example and through his teaching, Pyle molded and influenced generations of young artists who have continued his unique vision of illustration far beyond his own lifetime. Published 93 years after the death of Howard Pyle, this book celebrates the enduring and far-reaching achievements of America's foremost illustrator. Illustrated with over 3300 images, this important research tool represents the complete record of all known Howard Pyle illustrations, hundreds of which have not been reproduced since their original publication over 100 years ago.
Paul Preston Davis, with exhaustive research and dogged perseverance, has produced a much-needed resource for the study of Howard Pyle and American illustration. His work greatly expands upon the data originally collected by Willard S. Morse and Gertrude Brincklé in 1921. For the first time, full-color images (approx. 1.25 x 2.25 inches) of each of Pyle's published and unpublished works are provided in a single source. Most importantly for the researcher, Davis has indexed and re-indexed the information, creating a tool that is as easy to use as it is valuable. This remarkable and comprehensive set of books embodies years of research and will be valued and treasured by researchers, scholars, librarians, and collectors alike. Co-published with The Delaware Art Museum.

See More... Roberts, Ryan (compiler and editor) JOHN FULLER & THE SYCAMORE PRESS: A BIBLIOGRAPHIC HISTORY.
New Castle, Delaware and Oxford Oak Knoll Press and The Bodleian Library 2010 6 x 9 inches Hardcover, dust jacket 160 pages
Set up in 1968, John Fuller's Sycamore Press published some of the most influential and critically acclaimed writers of the past half-century. Operating from a garage, the press published established authors, such as W. H. Auden, Philip Larkin and Peter Porter, as well as promoting young poets, including James Fenton and Alan Hollinghurst. The Sycamore Press ceased operations in 1992, but it remains an excellent example of the unique qualities associated with the small press movement in England.

In addition to a full descriptive bibliography, the book includes an evocative foreword by John Fuller, who wryly describes the trials and tribulations of 'garage' publishing. In a transcribed interview with the author, John Fuller explains why a pamphlet of poems took almost a year to produce as he experimented with letterpress technology. Personal reflections by Sycamore Press authors, such as Andrew Motion and Thom Gunn, illuminate the publishing process further and show what a powerful role John Fuller played in the lives of young poets lucky enough to be published by him.

While this book is full of entertaining anecdotes about the hazards of small book publishing, it also provides invaluable advice for small press printers.

Ryan Roberts is a Professor and Librarian at Lincoln Land Community College in Springfield, Illinois. He also maintains the official websites for Ian McEwan, Julian Barnes, Hermione Lee, and James Fenton. He is co-editor of a volume of interviews with Julian Barnes and editor of a volume of interviews with Ian McEwan for the University Press of Mississippi's Literary Conversations Series.

New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2011 8.5 x 11 inches Hardcover, dust jacket 380 pages
With the publication of her first book, Goblin Market and Other Poems (1862), Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) became the first of the Pre-Raphaelite poets to achieve critical success. Although Rossetti was (and still is) chiefly hailed as one of the century's leading poets, her accomplishments ranged beyond poetry to include essays, short fiction, and seven volumes of devotional poetry and prose. Frequently illustrated by her brother Dante Rossetti and other important Victorian artists, Christina's books also hold an important position in the history of Victorian book design and illustration.

As the first descriptive bibliography of Christina Rossetti, this book documents the full range of Rossetti's publication history, taking into account her books as well as her appearances in anthologies, periodicals, and hymnals, musical settings, and selected translations, ephemera, and Rossettiana. In addition to identifying a number of new publications, this bibliography provides a full account of the American printings of Rossetti's poetry collections, records a number of manuscript corrections or additions discovered in copies examined, and pays special attention to musical settings of her work. A substantial introduction provides an overview of her publishing history, identifies the bibliography's major findings, and explains the bibliography's format and terminology.

Christina Rossetti: A Descriptive Bibliography concentrates upon materials published before 1900, though selected later publications are also included. Locations are provided for all copies examined or known to exist, and presentation copies are identified. Section A is devoted to separate works wholly or primarily by Christina Rossetti, and provides complete bibliographical descriptions that incorporate current scholarly practices in the field. In this section, title page transcriptions, collation, pagination, plates, contents, typography, paper, running titles, bindings (including identification of the patterns and colors of binding materials), and publishing and printing details are provided for nearly 40 editions and sub-editions. Section B lists over 150 appearances in books, supplying title page transcriptions and supplementary notes on publication, illustration, and other matters, while Section C identifies over 150 periodical contributions by genre, providing full bibliographical citations and supplementary notes. Section D is divided into two parts, one for hymnals (published with or without music), and one for musical settings (including sheet music, song books, and music published in periodicals). Over 150 pre-1900 settings are listed, with a variety of details are provided for scores, including descriptions of sheet music covers or other title page equivalents; price; publisher's plate numbers; the length of the score in printed pages; initial key signature (expressed as numbers of sharps or flats), time signature, and tempo notations; reviews and notices of contemporary performances. Section E includes translations by or of Rossetti's work to 1900; selected printed ephemera; and selected other Rossettiana, including memorials, plaques, and commercially produced items.

A comprehensive index of poems allows readers to trace publication of poems across all sections of the bibliography. An index of prose and a general index are also included. The bibliography is illustrated with a 16-page insert of color plates.

Maura Ives is Associate Professor of English at Texas A&M University. Her essays on Christina Rossetti and on 19th century bibliography and textual studies have appeared in The Journal of Pre-Raphaelite Studies, Studies in Bibliography, PBSA, and Textual Cultures.
