Folio (275 x 457mm). Quarter bound in caramel leather over marbled paper-covered boards, title label tipped-on to upper board, spine titled in gilt, housed in a later folding cloth-covered boards case with plastic clasps. "This account of my angling experiences covers the 1980 and 1981 seasons. Shobrooke Park Lake is the sole ve…nue, unless otherwise stated. Also included are several etchings, executed during the same period; these are not intended to be illustrations to the text, but could be considered an act of homage to the fishy world - perhaps to invoke better results in the future." Limited to 50 numbered copies signed by the author. Very minor scratches to the leather along the spine, else a near fine copy. A scarce and handsome copy of the first book produced from this press. In pursuit of the elusive tench, the artist--starting his Chevington Press with this title--trolled Shobrooke Park Lake in Devon, England, recording his progress through diary entries duly illustrated on hand-made paper. Fourteen etchings (five with colour) by the author on various coloured hand made papers. From the colophon: "This slim volume was designed and printed during the summer of 1981 at Tiverton in Devon. The Perpetua type was set by hand. The various hand-made papers are from Barcham Green. The edition is limited to 50 numbered copies." The Chevington Press was set up by Bob Wakefield in 1980. Quarter bound in caramel leather over marbled paper-covered boards, title label tipped-on to upper board, spine titled in gilt, housed in a later folding cloth-covered boards case with plastic clasps. Chevington Press (illustratore).
