1948008728New York: Printed at The Spiral Press 1948. First edition. Paperback. This original Robert Frost 1948 Christmas Card features a trifecta of virtues. This is the first published appearance of this poem which had an unusual text history detailed further below. Of 2275 copies printed for 9 different names this is one of 375 printed for the poet himself. Last but certainly not least this is not only one of Frost's copies but is inscribed and signed by him. Following the first and second printed lines on the presentation page "This new poem brings Holiday Greetings from Robert Frost December 1948" Frost wrote "the Hendersons" and signed "Robert Frost". <br /> <br />Condition is near fine. The gray-green card wraps are clean bright and sharp cornered the binding staple firmly intact and uncorroded. We note only a tiny blemish above the title on the front cover and a trivial hint of wear to the spine heel. The contents are crisp and clean lightly age-toned but with no spotting or soiling. <br /> <br />With the permission of Frost and his publishers in 1929 the Spiral Press began printing an annual Robert Frost Christmas Card featuring one of his poems. The tradition continued until 1962 Frost's final Christmas. Each annual Christmas poem publication was printed with varying names on the title page to accommodate their being sent by various Frost publishers artists and important friends. This copy is one of those printed for Frost himself. <br /> <br />The 1948 Christmas poem "Closed for Good" has an unusual textual history. After it was first printed here it appeared in a number of other Frost collections including in the 1949 edition of Complete Poems and the 1954 1955 and 1963 editions of selected poems. In 1962 a revised version of Closed for Good was published as part of In the Clearing. There the poem is altered; the first stanza lines 1-6 is deleted And becomes They in line 7 and the word brush becomes spread in line 24. <br /> <br />This is clearly how Frost wanted the poem to evolve. In the Clearing was his final new collection and in 1958 Frost told Elizabeth Shepley Sergeant that he was trying out a new version of four stanzas. Nonetheless When Edward Connery Lathems edition of The Poetry of Robert Frost was published in 1969 the poem was presented in five stanzas and the two word changes restored to original. Given both Frosts manifestly deliberative use of words and the fact that the poem is a commentary on Frosts inheritance from the past and his legacy to the future the changes do not seem incidental. <br /> <br />By 1948 when this poem first appeared in his annual Christmas card and he inscribed this copy Robert Frost 1874-1963 had already entered the final decades of his life as the most highly esteemed American poet of the twentieth century with an accumulating hoard of academic and civic honors. Half a decade had passed since he had won his still-to-this-day-unrivalled fourth Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. This is all the more remarkable given that he did not publish his first volume of poetry until he was nearly 40 years old. <br /> <br />References: Crane B19; Tuten and Zubizarreta; ANB <br/><br/> Printed at The Spiral Press paperback

1630ABC_49153Flanders and Paris: various publishers 1630. Several prints are tipped into a 19th-century elaborately gold- and blind-tooled brown morocco album a blind-tooled ornament in the centre of both boards with the crowned initials J.B. on the front surrounded by a double fillet frame with elaborate corner pieces gold-tooled board edges and turn-ins gilt edges white watered silk endpapers. The work is housed in a 19th-century marbled slipcase with a paper label with the name of Countess Julie Visart de Bocarmé mounted on the front. The remaining prints have been tipped onto a sheet of sturdy paper inserted into a clear plastic file folder which are loosely inserted into a 19th-century elaborately gold- and blind-tooled purple morocco album with the word "album" lettered in gold on the front surrounded by a blind-tooled Gothic style border and an elaborate gold-tooled border gilt edges black watered silk end papers. Oblong folio ca. 29 x 42.5 cm; sheet size ca. 12 x 9 to 35 x 23 cm. With 24 contemporary hand-coloured engravings of which some heightened with gold 1 contemporary hand-coloured woodcut illustration 1 chromolithographed print 7 watercolour drawings including 2 on vellum 3 silk embroidered prints in various sizes and 1 image made of paper ornaments glued onto a black netting fabric. Further with a folded alphabetical list of the Antwerp printers and engravers of devotional prints in a 19th-century hand tipped onto the first leaf of the album. 2 volumes. Remarkable collection of 37 devotional prints and drawings including fifteen printed on vellum and two "clad" prints. The majority of the prints and drawings were made in the 17th and 18th centuries but a small number of 19th-century examples is also included. The prints all depicting Catholic saints and scenery are decorated with a wide variety of techniques. Most are hand coloured and heightened with gold but several are clad in fabric embroidered cut out to resemble lace sometimes backed with coloured paper or metal foil to highlight the cut outs and one was made by gluing paper ornaments onto a black netting fabric. The present collection which was owned and probably compiled by the Belgian Countess Julie Alexandrine Marie Josèphe Visart de Bocarmé 1823-1862 not only offers a fascinating sample of popular printing culture in Flanders but also highlights the endless creativity of both the creators and consumers of these prints.Devotional prints were initially used as images for the illiterate replacing written or printed texts. They were intended for private devotion and often bought and decorated by women. The present prints were mainly engraved by 17th-century Flemish printmakers such as Cornelius de Boudt 1660-1738 Michiel Cabbaey 1660-1722 Guillaume Collaert ca. 1595-ca. 1651 Lodewijk Joseph Fruytiers 1713-1782 Jacob de Man ca. 1643-1719 and Theodoor van Merlen III 1661-1749. In contrast to most examples of this genre most of the present engravings are printed on vellum and beautifully coloured by a contemporary hand partly heightened in gold for the halos of the saints. The prints include biblical scenes showing Christ on the Cross Joseph Mary the Apostles and John the Baptist. The majority of the prints depict portraits of Catholic saints such as Anthony of Padua 1195-1231 Apollonia of Alexandria d. 249 Dorothea of Caesarea d. ca. 311 Francis of Assisi ca. 1181-1226 Francis Xavier 1506-1552 Helena of Constantinople ca. 246-330 Peter of Alcántara 1499-1562 and Rosalia of Palermo 1130-1166. A complete list of contents is available upon request.With the initials of Belgian Countess Julie Visart de Bocarmé stamped in gold on the front board and her manuscript ownerships label Julie Visart de Bocarmé Baronesse G.v.Z.v.N. mounted on the front of the slipcase. Further with the printed label of Cabasson Successeur de Terzuolo-Despilly Papetier du Roi Rue de la Chaussée dAntin No. 15 mounted on the verso of the first flyleaf of the brown album all prints and drawings have been tipped onto a white sheet of paper with a manuscript collection number at the top. The boards are slightly rubbed and scratched. The first few leaves of the purple album have been removed to make space for the collection. The prints and drawing show traces of use with some browning and occasional creasing soiling or foxing. The edges and corners of the slipcase are scuffed and the lower right corner of the paper label is torn off. Otherwise in good condition.l K. van den Bergh Bidprentjes in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden 1975; J.A.J.M. Verspaandonk Het hemels prentenboek.
