cloth, dust jacket. Vale Press (illustrator). small 4to. cloth, dust jacket. 256 pages. First edition. Fine in fine jacket. The Vale Press is the story of typographer, publisher and wood engraver Charles Ricketts (1866-1931) and his famous press. Ricketts was a versatile and innovative practitioner of the printing arts who exerted a powerful influence on the development of modern book design. The Vale Press is the most comprehensive history of this early private press. Beginning with his work as "a designer of books and bindings" for Oscar Wilde, the story of the Vale Press reveals for the first time the nature of Ricketts's collaboration with the master printer Charles McCall of the Ballantyne Press, and the degree to which his success, both artistic and commercial, depended upon the transformation of his redundant skill as a wood engraver into a positive medium of artistic expression. This work includes a complete bibliography of the Vale Press's books and ephemera and is illustrated in color and black-and-white.

There is a moderate amount of foxing to the bottom edge of the textblock throughout, else a fine copy of this very scarce book. The decorations were designed by Charles Ricketts (1866-1931), a publisher, designer, and wood engraver who readily embraced the printing revival which propagated the ideals of the arts-and-crafts movement: "The novelty of a book, made during the recent revival, lies in the fact that it shows design in each portion of it, from type to paper, and from 'build' to decoration. Therein lies the difference between a book so understood and any other modern book printed before 1891.". Franklin, p. 81; Ransom, p. 437. original blind-tooled green cloth.
