Sobre este artículo
New York: Universe Books, 1982. Appears unread. Fine condition in a Near Fine dust jacket (only a little rubbed). NO chips. NO tears. NO creases. NOT price clipped ($25.00). Bright, shiny, clean, square, and tight. Sharp corners. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. Fresh and crisp -- apparently never read. This study of the life and work of Eric Gill is well illustrated with 116 examples of his "wood and copper engravings, stone cutting, sculptures in stone and wood, typography, and for the first time, some of his erotic drawings." Bibliographical references. Index. Bound in the original green boards, stamped in shiny gold on the spine. From the Dust Jacket: "Eric Gill (1882-1940) was an extraordinarily prolific artist. Best remembered today for his typefaces: Gill Sans, Perpetua, Joanna, and for his work for the Golden Cockerell Press, his achievements ranged far wider. He trained in an architect's office, and began his career as a stone-cutter (his gravestones and war memorials are scattered all over England)... He was a sculptor in stone and wood -- 'Prospero and Ariel' on Broadcasting House and the Stations of the Cross in Westminster Cathedral are his work... The book attempts to draw together all the separate threads of the whole range of Gill's work...". Second printing. Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 304pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
