"The covers for 'Counting on Chance' were generated solely on press using three of the four process color printing plates cyan magenta and yellow from the interior of the book via a method used mostly for preparing the press for printing called "make-ready." By overprinting color areas of image are built up on the paper by repeatedly passing the sheets through the press . In the true spirit of 'chance' the exact image of the cover will be generated at random when printing the book and as of this writing can only be imagined. Instructions to consistently rotate some of the sheets prior to feeding them into the press ensures variation within the edition"--Colophon. Davison Art Center, Wesleyan University unknown books

2004170345Woodbridge: Antique Collectors' Club 2004. Hardcover. VG/VG. Navy boards with gilt stamped lettering. Glossy color-illustrated dust jacket with black and brown lettering. 151 pp. Mainly color illustrations. This fascinating volume provides the definitive history of the small but important Mortlake pottery established by Joseph Kishere in the late eighteenth century. It focuses on the working life of Kishere and his stoneware products. The book is based on the writings and research of Robin Hildyard Jack Howarth and the late John Eustace Anderson. Anderson's book A Short Account of the Mortlake Potteries was published in 1894 some fifty years after the closure of both potteries. His material relied heavily on the fading memories of local residents in particular one or two surviving members of the Kishere family. Combining an artistic commercial and historical approach Robin Hildyard's Stoneware section gives a comprehensive overview of the English salt-glaze potteries and identifies Joseph Kishere's niche in a very competitive market. The style and range of his products from the origin of the potworks to the final closure are described in detail and fully illustrated. -Amazon. Antique Collectors' Club hardcover books
