(Anderson, Alexander) Pomeroy, Jane R. ALEXANDER ANDERSON, 1775-1870, WOOD ENGRAVER AND ILLUSTRATOR, AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY.
3 Volumes New Castle, DE and Worcester, MA Oak Knoll Press and the American Antiquarian Society 2005 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover w/ slip case 2600 pages
First Edition. This three volume, comprehensive bibliography focuses on the important American wood engraver, Alexander Anderson (1775-1870). The author has selected over 1,000 of Anderson's engravings to illustrate this major bibliography. This work begins with a well written and researched biography of Anderson. There are over 2,322 entries. By the early nineteenth century, Alexander Anderson was recognized as this country's preeminent illustrator. Called the father of wood engraving in America, and one of its masters, his prodigious work filled publications of every kind: separate prints, almanacs, fiction, travel, children's books, poetry, Bibles, religious tracts, medical texts, and broadsides. He is noted for his warm and often slyly humorous depictions of children in the large number of juvenile publications that he illustrated. The growing number of wood engravers and illustrators who followed Anderson owed a debt to his skill and universally acclaimed artistic sense. He set a standard for successors who worked in the medium he had introduced.

This study names and analyzes the publications where Anderson's work can be found. There are three indices provided, one of authors and titles, a second of printers, publishers and booksellers, and a third of artists and engravers. Libraries, museums, book collectors and dealers, and all those interested in graphic arts will be able to identify Anderson's work and add to the history of American nineteenth-century book illustration. No understanding of American illustration is complete without an examination of Anderson's appealing and masterly engravings.

Co-published with The American Antiquarian Society.

(Ardizzone, Edward) Alderson, Brian EDWARD ARDIZZONE, A BIBLIOGRAPHIC COMMENTARY.
New Castle, DE Oak Knoll Press 2003 large 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. Color frontispiece; 309+(1) pages.
First edition. When Edward Ardizzone passed away in 1979, he was one of the best-loved artists (and authors) in the English-speaking world. He illustrated more than 200 books and pamphlets, a good number of which he also wrote, as well as designed dust jackets and ephemera for a range of patrons. Brian Alderson first published a checklist of this work in The Private Library in 1972. Since then, with the co-operation of the artist and his family, he has extended and expanded the coverage of the original list, describing for the first time in a full-scale bibliography Ardizzone's books, dust jackets, commercial work and ephemera, with notes on his periodical contributions, war art, prints, posters and bookplates. Appendices reprint articles by Ardizzone himself and detail the history of two favorite titles - Peacock Pie and Peter Pan - and reproduce Gabriel White's memorial tribute to the artist. Includes a four page color section. Spine of dust jacket is faded. Headband is loose.

Ashley, Mike THE AGE OF THE STORYTELLERS.
British Popular Fiction Magazines 1880-1950 New Castle, Delaware, and London, UK Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2006 9.5 x 7.5 inches cloth 320 pages with 72 color and 60 b/w illustrations
The years from 1880 to 1950 were the golden age of storytelling, seeing the creation of such famous fictional characters as Sherlock Holmes, Fu Manchu, Father Brown, Hercule Poirot, even Winnie the Pooh. This was the age of Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, John Buchan, A.E.W. Mason, Sapper, Rudyard Kipling, H.G. Wells, Arnold Bennett and so many more. It was an age that coincided with the glory of the popular monthly illustrated magazine, typified by The Strand, which set the standard for popular fiction with the Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. The Strand soon encouraged rivals and imitators such as Pearson's Magazine, The Windsor, The Royal, Pall Mall, The Idler and many more.
This is the first reference guide to consider these magazines in detail, providing coverage of 144 titles, seventy in full-length entries, charting their contribution to and influence upon popular literature. There are illustrations reproducing covers and features from every magazine, with 72 color images, including many magazines that are now extremely rare. In addition to much new information this book also considers the collecting significance of these titles and will be of importance to collectors and bookdealers as well as literary researchers and bibliophiles.
The author has spent over forty years researching popular literature in all its forms. He has published over seventy books including the biography of Algernon Blackwood, Starlight Man, studies of the development of the science-fiction magazine, The Time Machines and Transformations, and the award-winning Mammoth Encyclopedia of Modern Crime Fiction.
