See More... (Bird & Bull Press) Wolfe, Richard J. THREE EARLY FRENCH ESSAYS ON PAPER MARBLING, 1642-1765
WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND THIRTEEN ORIGINAL MARBLED SAMPLES. Newtown, PA Bird & Bull Press 1987 8vo. quarter bound by E.G. Parrot in morocco and tips with leather spine label, and "snail" pattern marbled paper sides made by Wolfe especially for this edition. 106 pages.
Limited to 310 numbered copies and hand-printed by Henry Morris at his Bird & Bull Press on Umbria handmade paper. Wolfe has translated an unpublished manuscript from Lyon circa 1642, containing the earliest known French marbling recipe, an article from Journal Oeconomique,1758, and an article from the Diderot-D'Alembert Encyclopedie of 1765 into English. The Diderot article is especially interesting as it comments on the practical side of marbling, i.e., how much money could be made. The samples were produced by Wolfe using the instructions in the translated manuals. Included is a four-color sequence showing the various steps taken by Wolfe in producing the Placard pattern.

New Castle, Delaware, and London, England Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2009 7.5 x 9.75 inches Hardcover, 2 volumes 1,876 pages in 2 volumes, plus index on CD-ROM
This superbly comprehensive and detailed bibliography of the British book trade, the product of research in over three hundred libraries in the UK and USA, supersedes all bibliographies on British authors and authorship, bibliography itself, book collecting, bookbinding, book illustration, bookselling, censorship, copyright, libraries, literacy, papermaking, printing, publishing, textual criticism, and typography until 1890. More than 24,000 items (notably articles in trade journals) are lightly annotated and arranged in classified chronological order to illustrate the social and technological development of British book crafts and industries. Items are minutely indexed on the accompanying CD-ROM. Large areas of the history and practices of the British book trades are opened to scholarly study for the first time. British Book Trade, 1475-1890 belongs in every research library: no-one who works in the fields of British literature, bibliography, or book trade history should neglect this work.

Trevor Howard-Hill is Distinguished Professor of English Emeritus at the University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC. Besides his many publications on Shakespearean texts, Renaissance dramatic manuscripts, and textual scholarship are eight volumes of the Index of British Literary Bibliography (Oxford 1969-99).

Published by Oak Knoll Press and The British Library, in association with The Bibliographical Society and The Bibliographical Society of America.

See More... Laurentius, Theo and Frans WATERMARKS 1650-1700 FOUND IN THE ZEELAND ARCHIVES
`t Goy-Houten HES & DE GRAAF 2008 9 x 12.5 inches cloth. 354 pages.
The seventeenth century is an underrepresented period in the publications on watermarks. A growing demand in the fields of history and art history for exact dating of documents and artworks on seventeenth century paper was one of the main reasons for the authors to conduct research in this area.
This book is based on the `Ingekomen Stukken` (`Received Pieces`) of the Staten van Zeeland (States of Zeeland), carefully collected per year and preserved in the Zeeland Archives in Middelburg. In order to reproduce the watermarks in actual size, as was the case in volume 1600-1650, `Soft X-ray` equipment developed by Dr. Jan van Aken (emeritus professor dental radiology of the University of Utrecht) was used.<BR>With 1221 black and white and 7 full colour true size photographs and detailed descriptions Watermarks 1650-1700 found in the Zeeland Archives gives together with the first volume (Watermarks 1600-1650 found in the Zeeland Archives) a long awaited overview of the watermarks and the types of paper that where available in The Netherlands in the 17th century.
An indispensable tool for all those who are interested in paper, economy, history and art-history. With 1228 illustrations of which 7 full color.

(in Dutch) DE MARMERKUNST, (TOT VERSIERING DER BOEKSNEDE.) EENE HANDLEIDINGTOT DE PRACTISCHE BEOEFENING DER MARMERKUNST NAAR HALFER'S METHODE.
Dordrecht Atelier De Distelkamp 1992 8vo. cloth, paper slipcase. 121, (5) pages.
Facsimile of the first Dutch edition published in Dodewaard in 1899 (first published in Germany in 1895). This is the first treatise on the technique of marbling to be published in the Dutch language, and it also contains the only known portrait of Josef Halfer printed as a frontispiece. Richard Wolfe (Marbled Paper, p.127) notes: "Josef Hauptmann of Gera and Berlin (1867-1917)...in Paul Kersten's opinion was Halfer's best pupil. According to Kersten, the manual Hauptmann produced was second only to that of the master himself." This facsimile reprint contains an English language translation and an added commentary by Jan Stoorm van Leeuwen who notes, "Written almost a 100 years ago, the little volume is easy to read even now. It is a crisp, clear-cut and plainly-written manual. Equipped with Leo's 'marbling kit' and Hauptmann's little volume, the interested reader has all he needs to try his hand at marbling" (The Art of Marbling, p. 121). Printed letterpress in only 275 copies and containing 21 tipped-in marble paper specimens (some gelatinized) produced by Lia and Geert van Daal in facsimile of those in the actual 1899 edition. Beautiful and important book.
