Stendhal Beyle Henri; Carmody Francis Editor Translator; Dean Mallette Wood EngravingsABAA

The Private Journals of Stendhal 1811-1817

195420011203Kentfield California: The L-D Allen Press 1954. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine/very good. Dean Mallette. One of 175 copies quarto size 146 pp. Marie-Henri Beyle 1783-1842 is likely best remembered today for his novels "Le Rouge et le Noir" and "La Chartreuse de Parme" and is considered one of the earliest authors of realism. Stendhal saw much of the Europe of his day; as part of the Napoleonic army he participated in the 1812 invasion of Russia and the retreat therefrom; served as the French consul in parts of Italy and eventually moved to Paris being buried in Montmarte. Stendhal's "Journals" provide a fascinating glimpse not only into some of the places to which he travelled but more importantly into his inner thoughts; he was one of the Allens' "esteemed authors" and they were excited at the chance to publish an excerpt of his "Journals" when approached with the idea by Professor Francis Carmody. As stated in the Allen Press bibliography "this was our fourth edition to be produced entirely by hand with hand-crafted materials throughout. We were now convinced that this method was our proper mÃ©tier - that the handpress is the most satisfactory instrument in a chimerical attempt at the craftsmanship standards set by Kelmscott Doves and Ashendene presses" p. 39. This book was selected as one of the AIGA fifty books of the year. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in full Fortuny printed cloth from Venice of antique red on a dull gold background headbands of black and gilt title page in red and black in opposing vertical columns each section with headpieces of one of the two wood engravings by Mallette Dean one of an elaborate quill pen forming the shape of a fleur-de-lis the other of a cluster of grapes and leaves; handset RomanÃ©e type Crown & Sceptre paper hand-made in England with the watermark "British Hand Made" quarto size 10.25" by 7.25" pagination: 1-6 7-146. Dust wrapper of plain black Italian laid paper with gilt lettering on the spine. ___CONDITION: Fine with clean boards perfectly straight corners totally without rubbing a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and bright and entirely free of prior owner markings; clean crisp as new. The paper dust jacket we are grading as very good due to minor overall edgewear and a rectangular chip at the top of the rear joint approx. one inch by one-third inch; as the Allens stated in their bibliography "this paper proved to be too perishable; a clear acetate jacket would have been more durable and would have revealed the handsome Italian cloth." ___CITATION: Allen Press bibliography no. 15; Hawk no. 319. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

Spenser Edmund; White Ethelbert Wood engravingsABAA

The Wedding Songs of Edmund Spenser being the Prothalamion & the Epithalamion; Printed from the best editions with Wood-cuts by Ethelbert White.

1923210503006Waltham Saint Lawrence Berkshire: Golden Cockerel Press 1923. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/very good. White Ethelbert. No. 200 of 320 copies on paper duodecimo size 49 pp. Edmund Spenser 1552/3 to 1599 is probably best known for his epic poem "The Faerie Queene" an ode to Elizabeth I. Even today he is considered one of the greatest poets of the English language. This work "The Wedding Songs" is a publication uniting two works which were published a year apart both dealing with love and romance. According to "Chanticleer" this is the first work of the Press to be illustrated with wood-engravings; however they go on to state that "there is no great feeling of harmony between the engravings and the type" p. 16. We find the three wood-engravings charming; Ethelbert White 1892-1972 was a founding member of the English Wood Engraving Society beginning his career with water colour but being introduced to wood-engraving in 1920. ___DESCRIPTION: Quarter linen white paper spine label with black lettering blue paper sides over boards fore- and bottom edges uncut the frontispiece one of three wood engravings and the only one in three colours rust green and yellow the other two only in rust; Caslon type on hand-made unbleached Arnold paper duodecimo size 7 3/8" by 4 1/2" pagination: 1-8 9-46 47 final wood-engraving 48 colophon 49 publisher's device; no. 200 of the 320 copies on paper per the colophon; per the bibliography there were 350 copies on paper there were an additional 25 copies on Japanese vellum. In the original plain glassine dust jacket. ___CONDITION: Volume near fine with clean boards perfectly straight corners without rubbing a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and bright with many signatures still unopened and entirely free of prior owner markings; some light sunning at the top edge the glassine wrapper was cut a bit short else fine. The glassine wrapper very good entire the spine sunned and with several tears and chips along the spine. ___CITATION: Chanticleer no. 14. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
