Description:
The sole UK printing published by The Whitechapel Art Gallery, London in 1951. The BOOK is in Very Good+ condition. Complete with 48 pages. The printed card covers and frontispiece were designed by Barbara Jones. Staple- bound, the staples are minimally rusted with no 'bleed' to the paper. The covers have some light age related markings. Free from inscriptions. Light spotting to the text-block with a few lights spots internally. An exceptionally rare, ephemeral item of Barbara Jones' output. Timed to coincide with the 'Festival of Britain', the exhibition curated by Barbara Jones and Tom Ingram brought together popular and traditional 'art' produced for many and varied purposes but not intended for the gallery, and therefore under the radar of the art establishment. In her introduction, Jones writes of how our apprehension and judgement of such quotidian objects move from seeing them as, first 'Quaint' then 'Charming' and at last 'Good'. 'The virtues of British art are as visible here,' writes Jones… Read More

Description:
The First UK printing published by Faber & Faber, London in 1937. The BOOK is in near Fine condition. Original beige cloth, title gilt to spine on a grey ground. Covers are clean with only a hint of spotting to the endpapers. Grey top-stain remains bright. Free from inscriptions and erasures. The WRAPPER is complete and is in near Fine condition with just a hint of toning to the spine. Very light edge-wear with a just a few tiny chips to the extreme upper spine tip. The white rear panel is remarkably clean for its age with only very light age related markings. A small very faint red pencil mark to the front panel. The red and yellow lettering to the spine remains very bright. The wrapper looks very striking in the removable Brodart archival cover. Two illustrated plates (one as frontispiece) after etchings by Jones, and a map plate, each with original tissue guards present. David Jones's epic poetic memoir, tackling the trauma of his trench experiences in the First World War after his breakdown from… Read More

Description:
An unknown printing published by Faber and Faber - no date. In as far as I can determine this title was only published with its distinctive grey front cover, with red and yellow lettering, in hardback format. I can find no other paperback copy for sale in this format. This, combined with the fact that this volume has no publication data, such as date, no title page and does not include the plates of the published volume, leads me to conclude this is probably a proof copy. This copy came with a number of other volumes on WWI from the library of Norman Hancock who also wrote on his experiences of the First World War, notably in A Martial Medley (1931) along with David Jones, Eric Partridge and several others. This connection with Jones further makes me think it likely this is a proof copy sent by the publishers to Hancock. The BOOK is wraps format and is in Very Good+ condition. A generally very clean copy throughout. Some light creasing to the front cover. The spine at some point has had clear tape… Read More
