Limited to 180 numbered copies of which this is one of the 125 cloth-bound copies. Printed by hand by Paul Wakeman, the son of Geoffrey Wakeman, at the Plough Press. Three separate essays provide a fascinating study of English trade binding from the sixteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century. In "Illustrations of English Trade Bindings of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries," Geoffrey Wakeman describes what an ordinary book of the period looked like. Pollard's essay "Changes in the Style of Bookbinding, 1550-1830" originally appeared in "The Library" in 1956. The third article is again by Wakeman and is entitled "Bookbinding Styles in the Loughborough and Ashby-de-la-Zouch Parish Libraries." This article is based on illustrated slide lectures Wakeman gave while teaching at Loughborough and was meant to demonstrate to students the changes in binding style over the period covered in Pollard's article. These slides are reproduced as plates which are contained in a pocket in the back of the book. With the bookplate of Gavin Bridson. Also present is a prospectus to the book and a letter from Paul Wakeman meant to accompany this complimentary copy.

See More... (Wise, Thomas J.) Carter, John and Graham Pollard AN ENQUIRY INTO THE NATURE OF CERTAIN NINETEENTH CENTURY PAMPHLETS.
Edited by Nicolas Barker and John Collins. England and New Castle, Delaware, U.S.A. Scolar Press and Oak Knoll Books (1992) 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. 432 pages.
Reprint of the second edition. In 1934 two young booksellers, John Carter and Graham Pollard, electrified the world of books and book-collecting with an exposure of literary forgery on a grand and systematic scale. From the 1880s there had appeared on the market, through sale rooms or private transaction, a steady stream of `rare' or `early' editions of works by the Brownings, Swinburne, Morris, Wordsworth, Tennyson, Ruskin, Kipling, Rossetti and others. Using their bibliographic skills and their knowledge of paper, type and ink, Carter and Pollard demonstrated that these publications were not what they purported to be. An Enquiryis a masterly detective story, gripping and exhilarating in the irresistible force of its analysis; and it led to the inevitable question - who was responsible for the crime? The two authors thought they knew, and though they did not make the bald accusation in their book they left the reader in no doubt as to who it was - Thomas James Wise, the great bibliographer and book collector, held in the highest regard both in England and America. The furor that attended publication has continued to reverberate to the present day. Spine of jacket is slightly faded.
