hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. Publication: London, J. M. Dent and Sons Ltd, 1937 Formatting: 16mo, pp. 45. Condition Report: Near Fine. This copy is remarkably well-preserved, especially given the inherent fragility of its paper-covered boards. The binding remains tight and square with crisp corners, exhibiting only the faintest suggestion of rubbing to the extreme tips and spine ends. The striking chevron-patterned boards are exceptionally bright and clean, free from fading, soiling, or the splitting that commonly afflicts this specific binding style along the joints. Internally, the pages are crisp, bright, and free from foxing or prominent blemishes, retaining an excellent texture and maintaining a robust, unyielding text block. Overall, a highly attractive, sharp example of this delicate pre-war publication. Catalogue Note: First Edition. This volume presents the text of the seventh annual Dent Memorial Lecture, delivered by R. P. Gossop at the London School of Printing, featuring a foreword by Hugh R. Dent. The book is bound in the distinctive, eye-catching chevron-patterned paper over boards, a hallmark of this handsome memorial lecture series. Copies of this specific lecture in such an untouched state of preservation are increasingly uncommon on the open market, as these paper bindings were highly susceptible to handling wear and tear over the decades. It serves as a fantastic snapshot of pre-war British printing and illustration philosophy. Delivered as the seventh annual J. M. Dent Memorial Lecture, Book Illustration: A Review of the Art as it is To-day offers a fascinating perspective on the state of commercial and artistic book illustration in Britain. R. P. Gossop passionately advocates for a renaissance in the art of the illustrated book, challenging the rising dominance of photography and mass-market entertainment. His insightful lecture serves as both an overview of contemporary illustration techniques and a compelling argument for the enduring value of fine craftsmanship in publishing, making it an essential text for bibliophiles and students of book history.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. First Edition, First Impression. An uncommon title. Illustrated throughout in black and red by Chas (Charles) Pears (1873-1958). Paper-covered boards, illustrated to front. A good copy with light wear and marking to boards; and minor splits to the front joint, exposing the webbing underneath. The book is securely bound with hinges intact. Apart from a little light spotting to a few pages, the contents are clean and without bookplates or inscriptions. 24 pp. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 'In the Press and Out Again' is a book for children "all about making books". In humorous fashion, Robert Percy Gossop (1876-1951), tells the story of his book's production, from finding an artist, through the printing and binding processes, to the bookshop. 'In the Press and Out Again' was produced for the first of two Children's Welfare Exhibitions in London which ran for three weeks in 1912-13. The exhibitions encouraged debate around the nature of childhood and child welfare, ranging from educational systems to eugenics, and featured discussions of children's literature (primarily fairy tales), alongside debates and lectures on aspects of child development, psychology and health. R.P. Gossop started his successful career as a designer and freelance illustrator in 1896. From 1902 until 1904 he worked as studio manager for the printers Eyre and Spottiswood, moving to W. H. Smith in 1904 where he designed Smith's famous lozenge shaped logo. In 1913, following a visit to America, Gossop became the first art editor for British Vogue. During the First World War he worked at the Ministry of Information, helping with the distribution of propaganda. At the end of the war he became joint manager at Carlton Studio. In 1923, Gossop set up his own firm of artists' agents, R.P. Gossop Ltd. He continued to work as a freelance designer and illustrator, with commissions including designs for the Empire Marketing Board, Heal & Son Ltd and London Transport. Chas Pears was a successful artist whose big break came when he won a competition organized by the leading fine art magazine, The Studio. He contributed to several magazines including Punch, the Dome, the Longbow and the Sketch, before securing the position of theatrical caricaturist for Pick-Me-Up magazine in 1898. That same year he provided the illustrations for the book, Toby and his Little Dog Tan written by James Gilbert and for the next twenty years he was to receive regular commissions from book publishers. Apart from book and magazine illustrations Pears also carried out commercial work for clients, of which his postcard designs for chocolate makers J S Fry & Co are now highly prized by collectors.
