201816541Vancouver: Heavenly Monkey Press 2018 One of forty-eight copies done in three different formats. Series 3 is one of twenty-four copies out of a total edition of forty-eight copies. Bound in cream-colored paper over boards at the HM Studio. Quarto. . Series 3 with a leaf from both Rollenhagen'a Nucleus Emblematum Selectissimorum and Winter's Collection of Emblemes Ancient & Moderne. Series 1 contained four leaves including leaves containing the same engravings from Rollenhagen and Winter; Series 2 contained a leaf from Rollenhaben paired with the same plate on a Wither leaf. With illustrations ornaments and decorative initials. A fine copy. From the publisher Rollin Milroy: "The focus of Labour Vertue Glorie however is not the content or interpretations of the two authors' emblems but the production and form of the books from which these sample leaves come. To that end the book reprints three of Wither's prefatory notes from A Collection: one about William Marshall's engraved frontispiece one about the game of lots included in the book and "To The Reader" in which he discusses at length the book's creation and intent. Each of these is appended with comments from a variety of sources discussing and sometimes disputing the author's words. The comments also provide some insights to how Wither adopted and more importantly adapted Rollenhagen's original work for his own purposes. While not exact facsimiles the reprinted texts follow the original's use of swash characters and seemingly random combinations of roman italic and majuscule types. But only the reprinted texts; the rest of the book is set in a more traditional and calming manner. Heavenly Monkey Press, hardcover

There were also 20 deluxe copies and 5 copies hors de commerce. The Kelmscott Press founded by William Morris 1834 - 1896 and the Doves Press founded by T.J.

This beautifully produced leaf book begins with Pollard's essay that was written for the catalogue of William Andrews Clark Jr.'s renowned book collection published in 1921 by John Henry Nash. "Rather than a straight historical account of the two presses Pollard offers a meditation on their influences and influence particularly in matters of design and typography. It is embellished here with calligraphy by Martin Jackson and accompanied by a leaf from both of the presses: the Kelmscott's Golden Legend and the Doves English Bible."

The edition was printed on dampened Arches wove paper. The first half of this book is a biography of Griffo's life and work assembled from quotations taken from over four dozen sources spanning the 15th to 20th centuries structured both thematically i.e. The Roman Types The Greek Types After Aldus and chronologically.The second half contains translations of four 19th century texts at the heart of Griffo's rediscovery after being lost to history and then mis-identified as the artist Francesco Raibolini.

They include the New Appendix added to Antonio Panizzi's second 1873 edition of his pamphlet Chi era Francesco da Bologna; excerpts from Giacomo Manzoni's introduction in Studii di bibliografia analitica 1882; Adamo Rossi's "The Last Word on the Question of Francesco da Bologna's Surname"; and an excerpt from Emilio Orioli's Contribution to the History of Printing in Bologna 1899.At the center of the book is an original leaf from Aldus's 1502 edition of Heroidvm.
