2012108936New Castle Delaware: Oak Knoll Press 2012. hardcover. 6 x 9 inches. hardcover. 128 pages. An Examination of the Origin Printing Binding and Distribution of America's First Color Plate Book With Special Emphasis on the Manner of Making and Printing Its Colored Plates. Second edition limited to 260 copies.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Jacob Bigelow's American Medical Botany published in three volumes between 1817 and 1821 and containing sixty colored plates occupies a unique place in American book printing and book illustration. Of all the books published in the United States before the mid-nineteenth century introduction of chromolithography it was the only one to have its plates mechanically printed in color not colored by hand in the usual manner of the day. <BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Richard J. Wolfe's classic study of this seminal work issued initially in 1979 and now reissued in a revised and augmented edition has made use of Dr. Bigelow's previously unavailable manuscript papers and other previously unknown or little known records to come up with some startling conclusions. His investigations show that Dr. Bigelow's original plan was to have his plates colored by hand by artists. But this plan proved overly ambitious and the project faced failure. So he and those working with him invented a method of printing the book's plates on stone in a simple manner that prefigured and predated chromolithography by about two decades thus enabling him to bring his projected work to a successful conclusion. Wolfe's investigation of the origin printing binding and distribution through subscription of this signal work also constitutes an important case study of the production from conception to completion of a significant book of that early period. <BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> The 1979 edition of Wolfe's work went out of print quickly. As in that edition this second edition contains tipped in two of Bigelow's original plates one left uncolored and one colored by hand. These plates were rendered obsolete when the doctor and his cohorts discovered a novel way of printing them in color. Oak Knoll Press unknown

"With a new foreword by Sidney Berger this second edition meticulously tracks the rise and fall of paper marbling."<BR> <br /> - Printmaking Today Fall 2018<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> "Wolfe's magnum opus is still the most authoritative treatise on marbled paper its history chemistry and method currently available. It is both an essential reference work and a jumping-off point for future scholarship."<BR> <br /> -Meaghan J. Brown Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Subtitle: with special reference to the relationship of marbling to bookbinding in Europe and the Western world. Second edition with corrections from the original edition published in 1990 by the University of Pennsylvania Press a publication of the A.S.W. Rosenbach Fellowship in Bibliography. With over 350 color and 80 black-and-white illustrations and a new Foreword by Sidney Berger.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Richard J. Wolfe 1928-2017 was a rare book librarian practicing marbler and collector of marbled papers and books about marbling. This book is the result of more than twenty-five years of research and practical experience. Wolfe personally tracked down and sorted out historical records of marbling from their original sources and he drew on his own extensive experience as a practitioner to write eloquently on technical and stylistic questions. The resulting study meticulously reconstructs the rise and fall of the craft and recounts its history techniques and patterns in such a way as to put all aspects of this fascinating craft in proper perspective. <BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> When first published Marbled Paper was immediately recognized as the most comprehensive study of marbling to that point and its status as the standard history of the subject has not been diminished by more recent works. For that reason and with the goal of making it available again to scholars students and practitioners of marbling Oak Knoll Press is pleased to be able to present this second edition in cooperation with the Wolfe family completed with minor corrections left by the author.
