193423310New York: Greenberg: Publisher. Very Good in Very Good dj. c.1934. First American Edition. Hardcover. price-clipped light shelfwear slight bumping/fraying to bottom front corner faint bookseller's vintage rubber stamp Bertrand Smith's Book Store Long Beach California at bottom corner of front pastedown; jacket shows some wear along top edge a few tiny nicks and tears light scuffing. Per the jacket blurb this novel first published in England in 1933 is "an absorbing and moving story of English countryside life which presents vividly the conflict of slow-dying feudal conditions and the spread of urban influences." Various laudatory quotes from various British reviewers are reproduced on the front jacket flap along with the statement that "it has aroused a great deal of discussion and has already achieved the 'best seller' lists." The New York Times reviewer was impressed as well calling it "a proletarian novel entirely free from bias animus or exaggeration" and praising it for having "no taint of propaganda" because you know The New York Times wasn't havin' none of that proletarian propaganda in its vivid depiction of "revolutionary conditions in the agricultural England of today." The whole this critic further opined "in its intensity its breadth its largeness of vision and its strength is nothing short of epic -- an epic of labor that holds you close-gripped from start to close." And with no propaganda too. The beautiful dust jacket art is by David Berger. . Greenberg: Publisher hardcover books

1968BIBLIO-46370Lund Humphries London first edition 1968. Illustrated cloth folio 41 cm. 116 1 pp fold-out chart numerous ills. From the introduction: "This atlas is an attempt to show by illustration rather than by explaining in words the main changes in type forms over 500 years of printing. We have enlarged many of the most important types in the history of printing so that their shapes can be seen clearly and compared. We also show either actual size or only slightly reduced an original use of the type which further demonstrates its qualities; then follow enlarged letters and full alphabets of currently available types derived from or in the manner of the same historical original. We have used the broadly chronological headings of Old Face Transitional Modern etc rather than more sophisticated systems whose virtues are still being debated. Many types today have no very clear ancestry as under modern conditions the use of old type face designs is only possible after drastic revision ; but when learning about types the authors found it helpful to look at the designs of the past in their historical setting. There seemed to be a continuity in the changes in letter forms which made them easier to understand and identify and comparison with modern faces gave a useful insight into their nature. Equally important influences on the shapes of printed letters are the ways in which the type is cast and the techniques of printing. Books on these subjects and a short list of type histories will be found in the bibliography at the end of the atlas." Contents: Introduction; Roman inscriptional lettering; Scripts; Johann Gutenberg; Gothic and roman; Venetian; Old Face Italian; Old Face French; Old Face Dutch; Early Transitional; Transitional 59; Late Transitional; Modern; Display; Fat Face; Egyptian; Clarendon; Decorative display; William Morris; Twentieth - century roman; Grotesque; Index of typefaces; Specimen text settings; Short bibliography.
