Printed as an Eton prize book for 1845. Sixteen satires of Juvenal, and six by Persius. Printed by Whittingham (whose device follows the text) at Chiswick. This book is a minor footnote in the history of printing, as it was at one time regarded as the first use of Caslon old-face in the 19th century (see Keynes' Pickering bibliography, p.31), though that is no longer the case. Each page is printed within a red border composed of ornaments within a frame of inner and outer single fillets; the title page border differs from that of the other pages. First page is a printed presentation with the name of "Alderson" filled in and the date altered by hand from 1841 to 1850. Bookplate of Livraria de Palha on front pastedown. Front board detatched.

Newark, DE Lead Graffiti 2012 elephant folio loose broadsides, clamshell box 23 broadsides
One of 26 lettered copies.

The idea: The seed for Tour de Lead Graffiti was planted with Ray Nichols and Jill Cypher the day they stood in Liége, Belgium, watching the opening day Prologue of the 2004 Tour de France. The goal for Tour de Lead Graffiti was to translate memorable incidents in each stage of the 2011 Tour de France into wood and metal type to produce a coherent series of letterpress posters, as a creative design and typography challenge, using only wood & metal type, as well to parallel the physical endurance required of the cyclists in our own world of letterpress. The core staff of Lead Graffiti, including Ray Nichols, Jill Cypher, & Tray Nichols, were involved in each stage of production of the posters. Additionally, there were nineteen guest contributors who worked on various stages. The youngest was aged 10 and for one day we had two contributors from Indianapolis and Dallas in our Delaware studio. We had several typefaces made into wood type specifically for the project, most notably 12 line Clarendon Heavy Condensed in both a solid and outlined version, along with a variety of graphic shapes we thought might be useful to the stories. The posters are 14.75" x 22.5", printed on Somerset Textured White 300 gsm using only wood & metal type except for the signature block. The design & layout was produced spontaneously without the use of sketches, with each poster completed on the day of the Tour's stage.

The schedule: Work started at 6:00 each morning by scanning the previous day's poster, compositing the six scans into one digital image, saving in 7 differently-sized formats for various online applications (Lead Graffiti's website, blog, store, Facebook, etc.), writing the daily online description of the stage events and how they were used in wood & metal type for the poster design, and uploading of all of the appropriate files. At 6:30 each morning, we would tune into the Tour de France website to keep up with text-based newsfeeds of stage events from the start of the race, most notably who was in the early breakouts. The online work was typically finished by 8:15 am. We would watch the Tour de France live TV feed on Versus (NBC Sports) with opening commentary at 8:00 and the Tour live at 8:30. Guest contributors were asked to meet at our house at 8:30, where we would watch through the end of the stage around Noon, talking about things we saw and heard that would become seeds for the poster's content and typography. We would go to lunch to start visualizing the day's events. Around 1:00 we would head to the studio to see how we could make those connections real. The first order of business was to hang a poster from the previous day and everyone signing the preprinted signature block for the new day's poster, mimicking the Tour's daily sign in for those who were still in the race.

The printing: All of the posters were produced spontaneously, without any form of sketch, with the composition created on the bed of our 1969 Vandercook Universal III. We started the project believing we would print 3-run posters, including the preprinted signature block defining the day/stage/destination/distance. On Stage One we printed a 5-run poster which set the bar for future posters. The least number of runs was 5 and the most was 8. At the end of the final run of each poster we would note the time as the end of our day. For the 23 posters produced on consecutive days covering the 21 stages and 2 rest days of the Tour, we printed a total of 103 runs with a total time of 345 hours 8 minutes and 12 seconds, averaging just over 15 hours a day. As well as printing the edition of posters, we included 12 sheets which we overprinted with every run of every poster which are available as a separate purchase while they last and are not included in the standard clamshell. There were 29 poster sets set aside for portfolios lettered A-Z and three Artist Proofs. The remaining clean copies of each poster were set aside and available for sale as unnumbered individual posters. Additionally, postcards were cut from the makeready sheets. The title page, descriptive page and colophon, printing on the Lead Graffiti pastepaper used to wrap the clamshell that houses the portfolio, and the backs of the postcards cut from makeready sheets adds 12 more runs to the total for the Tour de Lead Graffiti project. Bill Roberts, a co-creative partner who often prints with Lead Graffiti and is the owner of Bottle of Smoke Press in Dover, Delaware, contributed to the design and production of the clamshells that house Tour de Lead Graffiti.

Plans are underway to produce a second-edition during the 2012 Tour de France held from July 1 - 22.

Limited to an edition of 150 numbered copies. The book contains a foreword by Henry Morris, and essay about Joseph Florimond Loubat by Pete Smith, a bibliographical addendum by George Kolbe, a book review of Loubat's master work, Medallic History of the United States of America, by John W. Adams (the author of Comitia Americana which was printed in limited edition of 60 by Henry Morris in 2007) that provides a wealth of information and two original leaves from Medallic History. Loubat's 1878 Medallic History has provided the foundation for all later writings on this subject. The leaves are from the substantial number of Jacquemart etchings that were originally produced for Medallic History. In addition to the two full-size original leaves, there are two leaves from the letterpress limited edition of Adams' Comitia Americana which had some selected Jacquemart etchings. Each of the Jacquemart leaves show the front and back of a medal issued by Congress to commemorate significant victories during the American Revolutionary War and the officers who achieved them. Jules Jacquemart is described by Arthur M. Hind in his History of Engraving and Etchings as " a virtuoso of the most delicate etching, he has remained almost unrivalled, and few etchers have trodden the same road..." The present volume was printed on Zerkall Mouldmade Paper using Garamond type. Prospectus laid-in.

Last Bird & Bull book on Henry Morris's handmade paper

(Leaf Book) Heaney, Howell J. THIRTY YEARS OF BIRD & BULL A BIBLIOGRAPHY, 1958-1988.
With a foreword and commentary by Henry Morris. Newtown Bird & Bull Press 1988 8vo. three-quarter morocco, Bird & Bull Press paste-paper over boards, morocco spine label. Accompanied by a cloth folder containing various text pages and ephemera; both inserted in a cloth-covered and lined clamshell box with a morocco spine label. 104 pages.
Limited to only 300 copies; special copies purchased from Henry Morris and numbered 3 to 10 in the colophon (Leaf Book - Chalmers 190). These copies came from Henry Morris's private stock and contain "the most choice stuff". This is the last copy purchased and is numbered "8". The book contains a complete bibliographical description of all books and selected ephemera printed by and for the press plus books printed by the press for others, since 1980. There is also a short-title list of all the entries from the 1979 bibliography, making this the definitive work on this fine private press. Each entry lists the collation, reprints the colophon and in most cases has a fascinating and enlightening commentary written by Henry Morris. All the humor is there, along with thoughts and beliefs that can probably only really be appreciated by a fellow letterpress printer who feels the anxiety, frustration and total commitment that goes into a private press production! Mention must be made of the type specimen list, contained within the folder of ephemera, which must be one of the most innovative and unique type specimens ever produced. Amazingly the book itself also has tipped-in samples and facsimile pages. Henry Morris took over two years to produce this book making all his own paper, writing, hand typesetting, printing in two colors, folding, pasting, etc. It certainly is a fitting tribute to the press's 30th anniversary. It was the last book produced by the press on paper made by hand by Henry Morris. Priced separately.
