Aggiungi al carrello8vo. dark purple Japanese cloth with gold stamped paper label on cover. unpaginated. First edition, limited to 72 numbered copies. A fine copy. This latest and unplanned work from the Hesterberg Press, titled A Fable for All Ages, is a wonderful accident. Earlier this year (2015), while sorting through a box of Troya paper used…by R. Hunter Middleton to print his Bewick blocks, I discovered over seventy printed sheets of The Old Woman and The Empty Cask. Knowing that Middleton had printed some fable blocks for Graham Williams and his Florin Press in England in 1980, I contacted Graham and learned that he had indeed run short of this particular fable and had requested more copies. This fortunate discovery, illustrating a very charming age fable by Galus Julius Phaedrus, is presented here and includes two other Bewick vignettes printed damp, in addition to the Middleton print which is laid in. This letterpress work explores the long and fascinating history of the fable, Aesop, Phaedrus, British Fabulists of note and Bewick's special interest in the fable genre. The following descriptive excerpt, used by Bewick, is taken from the Application of The Old Woman and the Empty Cask Written in 1778 by Samuel Croxall in his "Fables of Aesop and Others": "Phaedrus was an old man when he wrote his Fables, and this he applies to himself; intimating, what we ought to judge of his youth, when his old age was capable of such productions.". dark purple Japanese cloth with gold stamped paper label on cover.

Aggiungi al carrellocloth. large 8vo. cloth. (i), 69 pages, ii, (iii). The Blocks Revisited & Rediscovered documents the fascinating story of Thomas Bewick's personal blocks and their historic journey to Chicago in 1942. Many of these blocks found new homes quickly in the Midwest and across America, while others became well-travelled, eventually ma…king their way back to England. The whereabouts of these blocks and their movements over the years have raised questions and a desire to document them for their safe keeping. It is hoped this five-year investigation will begin to provide answers, as over 700 of the 1,350 blocks that came to Chicago are documented here in 35 collections. The Blocks Revisited & Rediscovered measures 6.5 x 10 inches and contains eighty pages which include fourteen original blocks printed on dampened Rives Heavy-weight paper using a Washington Hand Press. The remaining thirty-five Bewick illustrations were printed using a Vandercook Press from metal engravings reproduced from the Memorial Edition. The text, set in a digital version of Bulmer, was also printed from metal engravings. Color photographs of Bewick's portrait and his toolbox are included as tip-ins, along with a photograph of a group of blocks at the Hesterberg Press. A numbered edition of ninety copies was bound by Campbell-Logan Bindery, Minneapolis, in a dark green cloth with contrasting green end papers. The spine is gold stamped and the front cover features an inset of a vignette printed from one of Bewick's blocks at the press. Hesterberg Press (illustratore).
