First Eragny edition. One of ten copies printed on vellum, with an additional 226 on paper [all but 10 vellum copies and 38 paper copies destroyed before publication]. Title subheadings, opening initial, marginal notes and final two lines of colophon printed in red, decorative 'Clematis' border to opening page and initials by Lucien Pissarro. 4to., 26 x 21cm, 36, [4]pp. Later full vellum by Douglas Cockerell & Son, gilt binders signature to lower turn-in 'D.C. & Son 1946.' London, Eragny Press. Near fine, slight creasing to a handful of leaves, most notably pp.33-4, not at all inconsistent with the sheets having been salvaged from the bindery. Printing of the 18th book to be issued by the Eragny Press began in August 1904, and the completed sheets were sent to the bindery of Leighton, Son and Hodge on the 9th of November that year. It wasn't until the 24th of November that the Pisarros learned that a fire had engulfed the bindery, and they 'had every reason to believe the whole edition had been destroyed' (prospectus II). Thankfully, 40 unbound paper copies and all ten vellum copies were discovered to have survived' and 'by late January 1904, Esther was carefully going through the copies and sheets that were salvaged. In early March, she asked Leighton to look through the copies and provide an estimate for how long it would take to get the books cleaned and resewn' (A History of the Eragny Press, Marcella D. Genz). By March 1904, Lucien and Esther were able to publish these 40 copies, alongside a reprinted second edition of 134 copies. These 40 salvaged paper copies were bound with Michaellet blue paper boards, with an inset 'carnation and flames' wood engraving printed in three colours to commemorate the fire. There does not seen to have been an edition binding for the vellum copies, and several of the known bindings are dated rather later than the printing. It is likely that, as in the case of the present copy, the vellum copies remained as unbound sheets for a significant time. Although rather different to the main output of the press, not least for being the only book set in two separate columns, the Areopagitica was a triumph. T.S. Moore found it to be 'Magnificent' (Genz), and more recently Colin Franklin praised 'the severity of black initials, and spare use of red for shoulder-notes, [which] takes away the customary prettiness from this Eragny book and gives a classical seriousness quite appropriate to the theme and the author. The beautiful initials to each paragraph divide the text agreeably, and altogether the success of this makes one wish that other experiments of such an ambitious kind had been attempted. The opening page, with its heavy, bold black flowery border and great red initial T, seems also to suggest the character of some tract, with its heading FOR THE LIBERTY OF UNLICENC'D PRINTING.' (The Private Presses, Colin Franklin).

Erstausgabe
First edition thus, and from a small but unspecified printing by T. J. Cobden-Sanderson and Emery Walker. Small 4to, original Doves soft vellum lettered on the spine in gilt. 74, [1] pp. A fine copy, the text clean and fresh with just the lightest hint of the toning associated with this title, the vellum in excellent order with just a bit of the natural mottling normal to the material. A FINE AND BEAUTIFUL PRINTING FROM THE DOVES PRESS. This is the text of a speech delivered by Milton to Parliament on the liberty of unlicensed printing, which has since become a standard text on free speech and freedom of the press. A well-printed and handsome edition. Perhaps the first and greatest of all writings on the freedom of the press and speech.

First Rampant Lions Press limited edition, number 118 of 500 copies, bound by the distinguished bookbinder Bryan Cantle. This is a typographically interesting edition of Milton's text which is set in two different sizes of type. The text is taken from the first edition of 1644, written in response to the licensing order of 1643. Milton's rhetoric has proved the foundation of arguments for freedom of the press ever since, and influenced the American founding fathers, with both Thomas Jefferson and James Madison citing it. As noted in the "Introduction", "the aim of this edition. is to present for the modern reader a text which separates what is of lasting value in Milton's work from what is ephemeral and merely polemical". Accordingly, larger type is used "for the main line of Milton's argument, his universally applicable statements of principle, and his hopes for a reformed nation" and a smaller typed is employed for Milton's "appeal to parliament, his historical analogies, and the details of contemporary disputes". Cantle was apprenticed to Douglas Cockerell. Writing of the Cockerell bindery in an article in The Book Collector, Dorothy A. Harrop included Cantle in a list of the Bindery's "prominent modern binders and conservators" which also included James Brockman, Angela James, Desmond Shaw, and Philip Smith. Cantle later worked at the Eddington Bindery before establishing his own workshop in 1978 when he was elected a Fellow of the Designer Bookbinders. With James Brockman he collaborated on Brockman's "first electronic perspex binding" in the same year. Dorothy A. Harrop, "Pioneers of Conservation", The Book Collector, Summer 1986, pp. 179-90; Dorothy A. Harrop, "James R. Brockman", The Book Collector, Winter 1983, p. 422. Folio. Near-contemporary full tan morocco, signed and dated "B. CANTLE 1978" on rear doublure, spine lettered in gilt and brown, covers with design in black morocco onlays and brown rules, black morocco doublures with design in blind, free endpapers in suede, all edges gilt. Housed in a custom green cloth box with yellow velvet lining. Fine condition.

Broadside. Zustand: Very Good+ binding. Bifolium. 12" x 8.5". [4] pp. Minor toning to the edges, only. Extract of Milton's Areopagitica: A Speech for the Liberty of Unlicensed Printing, to the Parliament of England (1644) is printed on the recto of the first leaf; on the recto of the other leaf is a letter "To the President of the United States" in which Nash uses Milton's argument related to freedom of the press to Prohibition. Milton writes: "For those actions which enter into a man, rather than issue out of him, and therefore defile not, God uses not to captivate under a perpetual childhood of prescription, but trusts him with the gift of reason to be his own chooser; there were but little work left for preaching, if law & compulsion should grow so fast upon those things which heretofore were governed only by exhortation." Nash concludes his letter: "Do you not agree with me that John Milton would have blotted no single line of this paragraph in Areopagitica had he been told that his argument would be applied to that strange experiment that we call Prohibition?" Scarce in the trade. Only three located in institutional holdings (OCLC: 11181983).
