194042507London: Jonathan Cape N.d. but 1940. Proof copy. Two volumes. 8vo. 160; 161-283 5 pp. Original plain blue wrappers with printed titles early manuscript to both front covers giving the page numbering of the respective volumes with loosely inserted a stamped and postmarked postcard from Eric Gill to Professor Henry Harris of St. John's College Cambridge with the college address crossed out and a local forwarding address added in purple pencil. Wear to the spine ends very good. A proof copy issued before illustrations were added unusually bound in two volumes given the size of the work. The postcard features a photographic illustration of the Skirrid Mountain Inn Llanvihansel on the recto and is postmarked Abergevenny 16th September 1939. Gill who dated the card two days earlier mentions that he is "on the road to Capel-y-ffin having a drink in this pub". He then goes on to express remorse for not seeing Harris to say goodbye but hopes "to return before very long to do 3 key stones". He closes by stating "'Birmingham' seems to be maintaining itself." Gill's correspondent was Henry Albert Harris then Chair of Anatomy at Cambridge University and a Professorial Fellow of St. John's College. It has not been possible to establish the connection between the two but given the informal tone in which the card has been written there was clearly a degree of warmth and familiarity to the relationship.

Davies Gatesfield Windermere with love from Dorothy Christmas 1940". Frontispiece and 7 black and white photographic plates. The spine slightly darkened with a little mottling to the leather on the sides very good. An attractive and slightly curious binding.

The patterned paper of the boards is typical for the age and is very reminiscent of the style of the Curwen Press. London: Jonathan Cape unknown

1927303935Villa des Palmiers Salies-de-Béarn France 1927. 2 pp. in green ink. 4to. Some wrinkling closed tear to blank margin slight toning old folds. 2 pp. in green ink. 4to. Gill writes to his friend J.G. Wilson of the Bumpus Bookshop in London regarding his engraving "Flying Buttresses" mentioning his work on Troilus & Criseyde for the Golden Cockerel Press and mentioning another of his publishers. An excellent technical letter with 5 small drawings in the text. In part: "I am working like anything on the engravings for the Golden Cockerel Troilus & Criseyde. I expect to finish the engravings by about Easter . I shall come and see you as soon as possible to talk over things and explain how it happened that D. Cleverdon is publishing my next . Meanwhile this is just to make a brief apology for myself in the matter of the Buttresses! Is matter of fact they aren't so blooming wrong in the engraving as your correspondent thinks. It's the perspective which makes the difficulty." The engraving in question is "Flying Buttresses" based on a drawing of St. Pierre Chartes used to illustrated Gill's 1926 essay "Id Quod Visum Placet." Gill uses the rest of the letter to explain with the aid of five small sketches why the perspective is in fact correct. Douglas Cleverdon the Bristol bookseller and publisher brought out Gill's Art and Love in 1927 as well as a collection of his engravings in 1929. unknown
