Condizione: Near Fine. 31x21cm, 74pp. With forty-one illustrations in various colours taken from Gwasg Gregynog publications, and multiple tipped-in specimens. Copy 316 of 755 (900) bound in stiff maroon card covers, outer wrapper of grey paper with title printed in red and black to the front and spine. Gwasg Gregynog's 'Descrip…tive Catalogue' is an elegant and most generous production, well known for representing outstanding value for money in its standard edition as here. The Catalogue is an essential reference for understanding the modern revival of the Press and its achievements although the continuing absence of a second volume covering the post-1990 years is keenly felt. This copy distinguished by David Esslemont's signature, which is not normally present. Near Fine (slight fading around the edges of the cover, and a tiny liquid stain near the cover title). Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. One of ten copies specially bound for Oak Knoll Books. Red boards with informational pamphlet (7 pp.) inside front cover. 17 b+w prints from engravings. Thomas Bewick, 1753-1828, was born in the north of England at Cherryburn, on the south bank of the river Tyne, twelve miles west of Newcastle upon Tyne. At the age of… fourteen he was apprenticed to Ralph Beilby, a general engraver in Newcastle. Ten years later he formed a partnership with Beilby. Wood engraving was only a small part of the business and the majority of the work involved engraving inscriptions and decorations on a wide variety of objects such as guns, dog collars, harness, clock faces, rings, cutlery, and the engraving of banknotes, billheads and even bookbinders' tools and letters. Bewick is best known for his wood engravings in his two works of natural history: "A General History of Quadrupeds" and "A History of British Birds, Vol I Land Birds, Vol II Water Birds" VG+ Exlib with stickers on spine and back cover.

There are 6 original leaves tipped in: 4 from Esslemont's books and 2 from Sc…hanilec's, including a 4-page leaf with color engraving of Manhattan from New York Revisited. ". . . an edited summary of their conversations over the past four years, telling of domestic problems . . . of printers' problems: of getting in materials, of making the presses work, of which inks to use." Shoulder notes clarify what might be obscure. Esslemont's visits to the Schanilec home in Wisconsin provided the inspiration for his color linocuts; Schanilec's visits and 6-month stay in Wales resulted in the 33-inch color engraving of the Esslemont homestead.

An extremely good copy. With an introduction by Fiona Maccarthy. Inserted loose is a letter from David Esslemont presenting this first special copy which describes his binding process: "My design is loosely based on a detail from one of the Charing Cross engravings [the engravings on which the designs in Charing Cross underground station are based]. The broad fields of colour echo DG's own use of colour as in the postage stamps and book covers. I have created the design in my favoured white alum-tawed goatskin using stencils and the old toothbrush in places - with acrylic inks.".
