square 4to. stiff paper wrappers, cord tied. (15) leaves. Limited to 30 numbered copies. A fine copy. Concieved by Graham Marks. Designed, letterpress printed and bound by Tara McLeod. Printed on a Littlejohn proofing press. Tara McLeod originally trained and worked in the commercial world of graphic design. It was after that he… established The Pear Tree Press in 1988. Work produced at The Pear Tree Press is grounded in traditional, now obsolete, letterpress techniques such as metal and wooden type set and printed by hand on original printing machinery, including an Albion printing press dating from 1832. While much of the work produced at The Pear Tree Press involves McLeod's own imagery and writing, he has also collaborated with several notable New Zealand writers including Alan Loney, Brian Gregory and Hone Tuwhare and artists such as Richard McWhannell and Mike Ferris. McLeod himself is a prolific illustrator and has included his own linocuts in many printed texts. -Peter Vangioni, Curator, Christchurch Art Gallery. stiff paper wrappers, cord tied.

large folio. spiral bound heavy cardstock boards. Unpaginated. A Specimen Alphabet of Wood Type. Limited to 15 numbered copies. Small bump to the top corner of the boards, else a fine copy. This sixteen inch wood type alphabet is from the collection of The Pear Tree Press, Auckland. It is hand printed from the wood type on an Al…bion flat-bed press. One of the largest letterpress types to have been used in New Zealand, it was manufactured in the USA. Unfortunately the history of its use and by what printers is unknown. The date of manufacture could be late 1800 to early 1900s. As the font consists of only one letter, figure and an ampersand (&), it is likely to have been printed as single letters which were then assembled into advertising hoardings / billboards. Wood types today survive as a curiosity and are preserved in the collections of a few print enthusiasts. At one time most commercial printing companies could have counted on considerable income from the use of such wooden letters. Printed in color. spiral bound heavy cardstock boards. Pear Tree Press (illustrator).

First edition. Quarto. 82 pages. Frontispiece, pictorial title-page, 24 plates, 5 which are tipped in and include an original photo of the actual press, plus 14 illustrations in the text, some of which are full page. All of these are by James Guthrie, as are most of the texts, in prose and verse, and as is the printing. Linen-ba…cked decorated boards with gilt lettering to spine. Printed on handmade paper. One of 80 copies. The original intention was to issue the contents in four parts, starting in 1905, only two of which appeared. The present book, which is the equivalent of nearly six parts and contains much new material, was published in 1912. A typical Guthrie production, replete with his musings on art and literature, much in the spirit of the Williams, Blake and Morris. Includes an essay on Walt Whitman.Signed and dated by the author/artist on the half-title page in December 1912. On the front free endpaper he has drawn a caricature head of the portrait photographer Edward Cahen as a cat wearing a fez and incorporating his name. Tipped onto the front pastedown are two Autograph Letters Signed by Guthrie and dated 13.12.12 and Dec.17.12: about 120 and 150 words respectively. The first letter presents the book and mentions that no more copies are available. The second one indicates that Cahen has made a photograph of Guthrie who suggests other candidates for the ''gallery'', these being Gordon Bottomley, W.H. Davies, Edward Thomas, Walter de la Mare, Vivian Locke Ellis and Reginald Hallward. The latter contributes the poem ''On a Picture'' to this book.Free endpapers faintly tanned. Small ink spot to top edge of the front cover which also has a few small patches of rubbing. Corners of covers slightly bumped.

11 linocuts by Sheila M. Thompson, five printed in two colours, the remainder in either green or brown. One of 220 numbered copies. 4to., 22.5 x 29.5cm, [28]pp. Original publisher's decorative green paper boards, with design after Sheila M. Thompson in white, lettered in black. Printed by John Freeman on Arnold & Foster's handma…de paper. Flansham, Pear Tree Press. Very good, corners bumped with some chipping to paper covers, spine and top edge faded, but internally bright and clean with only minimal offsetting, three sets of dropped type on page beginning 'Quarry' underlined in red, quite possibly at the press. Inscribed 'For Joanna's Son & Daughter, fr. John, Christmas 1948' on ffep. One of the final works printed by the Pear Tree Press, Eleanor Farjeon's brief and charming poems on the Sussex landscape furnish this scarce alphabet book, such that we learn: "Mister Belloc lives in Sussex, And don't you dare to doubt it! He makes good cheer and drinks good beer, And tells us all about it." A close friend of Edward Thomas, Farjeon was a successful children's author, now remembered primarily as the author of the hymn 'Morning has Broken', and recalled being profoundly influenced by the Sussex landscape where she moved with her family during the First World War. Writing in a letter to George Earle, she described the impact that the Downs had on her: ?They are so much beyond human beings to me that I almost cannot talk of it? I am theirs and if ever I vanish from the face of the earth, it will be because they have drawn me in? They?ve healed me more and given me more strength and certainty and peace than any other living thing.? Thompson's linocut illustrations are the ideal accompaniment to Farjeon's poems, and the bold use of colour epitomises the playful style of James Guthrie's press, whose guiding principle was that 'the artist at the press is, before everything, an explorer'.
