Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. First Edition. The presence of the original publisher's glassine wrap (removed just now) has greatly added to the look of this fine book, with only slight sunning to the bottom edge thereof, published in association between Farrand Press & Private Libraries Association, London, in First Edition state. Gilt lettering to cover and of cover device, bound in overlarge octavo format, at [9], 10-374 pp. in length. Very large number of gorgeous illustrations. From the Introduction: "This book is about books produced by lithography in Europe in the age of the hand press. The period it covers corresponds roughly with the first half of the nineteenth century, but since the hand press continued to be used for lithography long after this, even on a commercial basis, I have allowed myself some chronological license. To my knowledge very little of any consequence has been published about such books by those who wrote on lithographic subjects at the time, and nothing at all since then. This book's main aim, therefore, is to introduce a little-known area of book design and production; but I hope that it will also contribute to our understanding of the overall picture of printing and publishing history." Fine discussions of lithographic incunables; military manuals; the presses at Chatham and Metz; lithographic publications of Sir Thomas Phillipps; Books on accounting and other 'difficult composition'; Music method books; Non-latin scripts; Lithography and phonography: the books of Isaac Pitman; and etc.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.

quarto, brown cloth. First Edition. First Edition. quarto, brown cloth. 371 pp. Farrand Press, . "When Aloys Senefelder invented lithography in 1796, he made it possible to produce books without the use of a hand-press. It revolutionized publishing, making it possible to reproduce cheaply and efficiently short- hand symbols, calligraphy, facsimiles, military maps, music, accounting tables, etc. This remarkable book by Michael Twyman is the first to give a comprehensive history of early books produced by the application of Senefelder's method. It is the result of twenty years of scholarship that continued after the publication of his book, Lithography, 1800-1850 by the Oxford University Press in 1970. In addition to the extensive text, the book features a bibliographic catalogue of over 420 lithographed books from the period. Each entry has full pagination, the book's publication price (when available), and other useful annotations. It is the first such catalogue of early lithographed books available and will be extremely useful to collectors, booksellers, librarians, and scholars interested in the field. Twyman's text includes chapters on Lithographic Incunables; Military Manuals; The Presses at Chatham and Metz; The Lithographic Publications of Sir Thomas Phillipps; Books on Accounting and other ' Difficult Composition'; Music Method Books; Non-Latin Scripts; Lithography and Phonography; The Books of Isaac Pitman; Books with Pictures; Facsimiles of Autographs; and Photolithographed Facsimiles and Reprints. There are also bibliographies and an index. A very fine, clean copy.

Libro Prima edizione
Cloth. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Type: Book In the last few decades lithography has become the major book production process, but its versatility and potential for short-run, "do it yourself" publishing were first exploited early in the 19th century. The arrival of desk top publishing has stimulated an interest in this once neglected, but now very relevant, area of printing history, and Twyman's meticulous research presents the reader with a minute account of the subject. He describes the design and production of a wide range of publications, from a broad variety of sources, for whom lithography promised a flexibility unobtainable from letterpress. However, some of his most interesting accounts and demonstrations are of hopes disappointed and a return to letterpress. This text is a study of the potential of lithography for "do it yourself" publication in the 19th century by the military (manuals), antiquarians (catalogues), by those needing special types (Champollion on hieroglyphs, Pitman on shorthand) and by publishers mixing text with illustration and tables. There were a great variety of users whose output is later mirrored in the "camera ready" books of the 1960s and 1970s. 374pp. N.B. Very very slight fading to top edge of boards and spine.
