Beschreibung
12mo, 31pp., plus back matter. A fine copy in the publisher's thin grey wooden veneer boards with plain white spine. Spine gently and evenly faded, but with the gilt still bright. Else very fresh and handsome. To paraphrase from Lane's Foreword, the illustrations herein were created for various Penguin trade publications over the previous ten years. Since the thin mass-produced paper cannot give the full flavor of these wood engravings, Lane decided to have this little volume made on thicker handmade paper (Hosho-Shi from Berrick Brothers in London), which does more justice to the engravings. With contributions from Reynolds Stone, Cecil Keeling, Derrick Harris, Imre Reiner, Roy Morgan, George Buday, David Gentleman and Diana Bloomfield. A lovely little book. Laid-in is a Christmas card from H. F. Paroissien, who seems to have been a Director at Penguin at the time of publication. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 11447
