A mint as new set.<br /> <br /> A magnificent facsimile of the Golden Cockerel Press Canterbury Tales 1929-31 widely regarded as one of the greatest achievements of twentieth-century private press printing. This Folio Society production faithfully recreates the scale typography and mise-en-page of the original preserving the remarkable integration of text and image conceived by Gibbings and Gill.<br /> <br /> Gill's wood engravings - bold architectural and deeply expressive - rank among his most important book illustrations bringing a modern vitality to Geoffrey Chaucer's great pilgrimage narrative. The present edition printed on fine laid paper and bound in full goatskin succeeds not merely as a reproduction but as a worthy modern counterpart to the Golden Cockerel original.<br /> <br /> The accompanying essay volume by Holliday offers a detailed examination of the book's decoration and design further enhancing the set's bibliographical interest while the inclusion of the rarely preserved prospectus and sample leaves adds an additional layer of completeness and appeal.<br /> <br /> Examples of the original Golden Cockerel Press Canterbury Tales are now firmly in the realm of major private press collecting. This facsimile - particularly in such pristine condition and with its ancillary material intact - offers a compelling alternative: a museum-quality presentation of one of the defining illustrated books of the twentieth century at a fraction of the cost.
