Condizione: new. 1963 (illustratore). ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2011). 2011 1st edition. Large heavy 4to (225 x 282mm). Pp313 + 1pp ads. Superb colour photographs and fly plates throughout. Burgundy cloth, gilt fly motif to upper board, spine titled in gilt. Very good in slightly used dust-wrapper. ".a case study of elegance, style and discretion.The illustrations alone make this book an absolute gem. [but] the text is at least as valuable as the pictures." (Martin Joergensen). If there is one milestone in the whole of salmon fishing literature which no fisherman should be without, it is George Mortimer Kelson's "The Salmon Fly: how to dress it and how to use it," first published in 1895. Terry Griffiths, in his brilliant new book, "The Essential Kelson" has made a meticulous study of the complete writings of Kelson, showing how far ahead of his time he really was. Terry has invited some of the world's foremost classic salmon fly-tyers to interpret and tie many of Kelson's extremely complex patterns, giving us a new understanding of his unique take on the classic salmon fly. These have been beautifully photographed and lavishly reproduced on high quality paper. This definitive new interpretation of Kelson, his philosophy and work, will doubtless enhance his deserved reputation as the classic salmon fly-tyer by which so many modern tyers set their sights. .

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1993). 1993 1st edition. 8vo (160 x 240mm). Pp128. Colour plates of flies. Introduction by R.J.W. Coleby. Quarter bound in black bonded leather over black cloth, gilt FFCL motif to upper board, decorative end-papers, top edge gilt, silk marker ribbon, spine titled in gilt. Black cloth-bound slipcase. Edition limited to 1000 copies. Slight use but very good in slipcase. Originally published between 1886 and 1888, as 53 cards (in sets of 16 + 16 + 21, which were styled First Series, Second Series and Third Series), issued by the magazine Land and Water, to accompany Kelson's articles. The cards, each carrying a chromolithograph illustration of a salmon fly together with its origin and dressing, were to be pasted into blank spaces left in the magazine for that purpose. Then in 1902, six years after the appearance of Kelson's book The Salmon Fly: How to dress and how to use it, a further group of 32 patterns were offered en bloc in Land and Water. This latter group might justifiably be regarded as a supplement to The Salmon Fly. All 85 patterns are illustrated in superb full colour with detailed descriptions of their dressings. Thirty-nine of these patterns are not illustrated in The Salmon Fly of 1895, and eleven of them are not even mentioned in the book's text. It was not until 1988 that angling bookseller, R.J.W. Coleby, came across a scrapbook of them compiled by Johnny Mercer, fly dresser to Forrest of Kelso. At first Coleby did not appreciate what he had found, and it was only after much consultation with the leading collectors of the day that he pieced together this story. He says in his scholarly and informative introduction, "No complete collection of all 85 flies has yet come to my notice." Entirely passed over in subsequent literature because researchers and writers were simply not aware of their existence, this is the first time that the Land And Water Flies have appeared together in book form. .
