(London Golden Cockerel Press 1950) 8vo. two-toned blue and gold cloth with design in gilt on front cover, top edge gilt, others uncut. 40 pages
Printed in an edition limited to 500 copies(Cock-A-Hoop 185). Swinburne's poem, here correctly printed for the first time, has been prepared for press from the manuscript in the British Museum and introduced by Randolph Hughes, who remarked that "the get-up of the book is admirable...worthy of the poem itself, and that is saying a lot" (Cave, History of the Golden Cockerel Press 202). "Among the greatest poets of antiquity, Euripedes, Propertius, Virgil, and Ovid all found in the legend of beautiful, tortured Pasiphae, who loved a bull (as a result of divine wrath), a subject to evoke sublime verse, and Swinburne when he chose this theme, was in noble company. Ignored by editors and critics-- because of its subject matter-- the poem is nevertheless comparable with his finest work. Although this is a sister volume to "Hero & Leander (no. 183), I did not want the two to be identical twins, and so used Bembo roman type to give a different effect. (Cock-A-Hoop 185). Illustrated with 7 copper engravings by John Buckland Wright (1897-1954) with his usual "restrained, but full-blooded eroticism." Light rubbing of covers.

See More... (Golden Hind Press) Middleton, Richard THE GHOST SHIP.
(Madison The Golden Hind Press 1953) 8vo. stiff paper wrappers, cord-tied. (vi), 26+(1) pages
Wood engravings by John DePol, who also designed the decorative initial letters (Causley p. 153-154, which states that this is limited to 200 copies, fifty of which were given to John DePol). This tale is perhaps the best known work of the British poet and writer Richard Middleton's (1882-1911), which was cut short by his suicide at the age of 29. His writing is surprisingly expressive. It reads with a pronounced cadence, as if it was being told out loud. The tale of the ghost ship putting into port is atmospheric but not oppressively so. Above all, it is not only funny but is fun to read. The dense but lively style of John DePol's illustrations compliment the down-to-earth telling of the story. The title page printed in red and black. Colophon printed in blue. With presentation slip with pencil signature of "Edna & Arthur" loosely inserted.
