Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. Portland, OR: Azoth Press, 2016. SIGNED w/ Full-color Azoth Press Gateways Through Light & Shadow / Liber Spirituum Bookmark Laid-in - "This is a hardcover signed limited edition of only 1000 copies". NEW, touch of silver stamping offset from adjacent copies (see scan) "O…ne of only 1000 Signed limited edition hardcover copies. Individually hand bound with gold foil stamping, 70lbs acid neutral paper". From the Publisher : "Gateways Through Light and Shadow is the second book by Bryan Garner, known to his fellow ceremonial magicians as Frater Ashen Chassan, and in it we are again offered the illuminating opportunity to observe and learn from a practicing magus engaged in his Work. Once more he offers instruction in the processes of grimoric ceremonial magic and shares the insights he has gained from his ongoing research and operations. However, what may be most extraordinary about Gateways is that it allows us access to the detailed magical journal records of the communications received by Ashen Chassan and his gifted scryer, Benn mac Stiofán, during the evocations of such profound Spiritual beings as the seven Planetary Archangels, the seven Olympic Planetary Spirits, the four Spirit Kings of the Cardinal Directions, and the Supercelestial Angels Sandalphon and Metatron. Gateways Through Light and Shadow is illustrated throughout with two-color line art of the talismanic magical implements used in the evocations, including sigils, seals, lamens, pentacles, and magic circles, along with new implements created by the magician under the guidance of the Archangels, as well as new portraits of the evoked Spirits". "This book is a major contribution to the study and practice of Western ceremonial ritual magic. This is a book that no serious practitioner of magic should be without." --from the Foreword by Dr. Stephen Skinner". Signed by Author. First Edition/Signed/Limited. Hard Cover. New/No Jacket, As Issued. Illus. by Alex McVey - Over 140 illustrations - Plates, Figures, Rubricated Throughout. 8vo size - over 9" tall. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Limited Edition. Brisbane/Chiang Mai: Modern Magistery an Imprint of Salamander and Sons, 2011. NEW - Limited Edition Presentation Bookplate Signed By Tony Matthews. From the Publisher (see image) : "Upon its publication in 1976, In Pursuit of Gold - written by the enigmatic Lapidus - was hailed as a…rare work by one of the few practicing laboratory alchemists writing in English during the mid-to-late 20th century. Primarily building upon three alchemical texts - namely The Sophic Fire by John Pontanus, The Secret Book of Artephius and Sir George Ripley's long poem, Twelve Gates - and more than two dozen of Theodor de Bry's masterful engraved emblems from Michael Maier's 1618 Atalanta Fugiens, Lapidus proffers his own observations and practical conclusions drawn from decades of quiet alchemical work in his subterranean Melcombe Street laboratory. Contemporary alchemists with an interest in the confection of the star regulus of antimony will assuredly gain from reading and re-reading In Pursuit of Gold. Beyond simply confirming the true identity of Lapidus as David Curwen, this revised and expanded second edition includes a foreword from Stephen Skinner, responsible for the "additions and extractions" of the first edition, along with an introductory biographical essay on Lapidus - his life, family, alchemical work, and writings - by Tony Matthews, grandson of Lapidus. This second edition of In Pursuit of Gold also features intimate personal and family photographs, facsimiles of correspondence between Lapidus and the great alchemical historians F. Sherwood Taylor and E.J. Holmyard, and original oil paintings by Lapidus. Presented as full colour plates, these photographs, items of correspondence and artworks appear here in print for the first time". Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition. Hard Cover/Cloth Buckram. New/New. Illus. by Theodor de Bry, Lapidus [David Curwen], Two Plate Sections on Glossy Coated Paper Stock, Many In Full Color. 8vo size - over 9¼" tall. Signed by Author(s).
