195811447Westerham Kent UK: Privately Printed Westerham Press 1958. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine. 12mo 31pp. plus back matter. A fine copy in the publisher's thin grey wooden veneer boards with plain white spine. Spine gently and evenly faded but with the gilt still bright. Else very fresh and handsome. To paraphrase from Lane's Foreword the illustrations herein were created for various Penguin trade publications over the previous ten years. Since the thin mass-produced paper cannot give the full flavor of these wood engravings Lane decided to have this little volume made on thicker handmade paper Hosho-Shi from Berrick Brothers in London which does more justice to the engravings. With contributions from Reynolds Stone Cecil Keeling Derrick Harris Imre Reiner Roy Morgan George Buday David Gentleman and Diana Bloomfield. A lovely little book. Laid-in is a Christmas card from H. F. Paroissien who seems to have been a Director at Penguin at the time of publication. Privately Printed [Westerham Press] hardcover

005029Esslingen and München: Verlag von J. F. Schreiber. Hardcover. Front board: pictorial paper pastedown. Cloth spine. . Near Fine. An exceptionally clean and bright copy of this juvenile audience plate book depicting geography and domestic and work life. N.d. circa 1870s. Small folio. 32 by 21.5 cm. 5 7 1 pp followed by 30 double-sided hand-colored plates. Each plate measures 32 by 40 cm. The plates depict the home rural and urban the city the farm a vineyard tools a church interior a city market a winter skating scene a mountain landscape a railroad station a forest etc. The point was to educate children about the features of all these places and spaces and incidentally impart the vocabulary -- the many nouns -- associated with them. Nowadays the plates are simply wonderfully decorative with their bright chromolithography and evocation of a lost world. And the great Meggendorfer was responsible for three of the plates! Light wear to the cover. One of the plates has a minor closed tear by its fold. But as we indicated an unusually appealing copy. <br/><br/> Verlag von J. F. Schreiber hardcover books
