1989ABE-2483402199Chatto & Windus 1989 Extremely RARE SIGNED FIRST PRINTING of the second volume of Holroyd's masterpiece. The first printings are pretty rare anyway but a signed one is truly scarce. NOT A LIBRARY COPY. Not remaindered. In fact this Near Fine hardback looks to be unread although there is one tiny nick at the very base of the spine which could be a manufacturing fault. The binding is beautiful beneath the jacket the gilt signature of Bernard Shaw is bright the spine is unbroken and the bright blue and gold title rectangle is superb. The book is in a protected Fine unclipped jacket and the elusive signature is directly written boldly without a message on the title page. An unusual book perfect for the collector.

1998ABE-2704255759Faber London 1998 SIGNED on the title page no dedication no owner signature just a signed by the author softback original. Text block paper is tanning which is naughty of the publisher ; here is a great book by a renowned writer and Faber choose to print it on cheap pulp. Apart from this foolish decision this is a nicely designed production. The full colour cover is a French flap structure that has a beautiful monochrome photograph underneath it. So a high standard of design and typography but they print it on rubbish paper! Cannot understand why. Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng.

2022ABE-1677491906616Dark Horse ComicsU.S. 2022 A superb copy of the first printing of this REVISED Second Edition. I know this sounds a bit contradictory; but such was the success of the First Edition it was decided to issue this revised version. It has a stunning extra section showing how the celebrated first printing was developed. It's therefore the edition to collect. New and unread first printing of this superb second edition. The great Dave McKean has arguably excelled himself with this wonderful book. He should be given a retrospective instead of all the over familiar 'artists' who keep circulating around the world's auction houses and galleries. McKean is so far ignored by the art establishment like so many others who can actually draw and paint and use their skills and imagination ; instead of merely conforming to a the establishment crap that subverts sensibility. Illus. by McKean Dave. 2nd Edition. Soft cover. New. Dark Horse Comics,U.S. paperback

202011157Tacoma WA 2020. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine in Fine Archival Box. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Quiet sophisticated and remarkably powerful Gabby's newest work is an exquisite blend of book art and binding. Gabby has from early in her career gone beyond her roots in design binding creating the text art and printing for several books now. Just as her design bindings push limits and explore possibilities so does her art and print work. It is a remarkable evolution.<br /> "Ralph Emerson wrote this poem "Blight" in July of 1843. He spoke out on climate change and the ways we could shift course by not blindly following others. In describing his travels to Europe while writing on life and nature Emerson said "same faces under new caps and jackets another turn of the old kaleidoscope."<br /> I took some liberties with Emerson's poem surrounding his words with photographs captured at Owen Beach in Washington state on a rainy winter day in 2019. This public beach in the middle of an urban old-growth forest will close for a year beginning in fall of 2020 to mitigate the effects of climate change and rising sea levels. Emerson's words of anger and disappointment at environmental destruction only resonate more with our current climate of melting glaciers and raging fires. As we continue to twist the kaleidoscope I remain optimistic we will find a way to rearrange these fragments and improve the view for future generations." artist statement<br /> <br /> This copy a 'making copy' adds tests of inks gouache type and design on a lot of the pages on the main book.

I feel optimistic about our chances to help parts of our planet with more exposure to what is going on.
