161 pages. Oversized volume measuring 12 inches by 8-1/4 inches. Several small chips at corners. Inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper. Inscription reads: To Lawrence S. Thompson from Rigby Graham, July 1980. A post card from Rigby Graham, addressed to Lawrence S. Thompson, is laid in; this post card, also signed by Rigby, lets Mr. Thompson know that a copy of the book has been sent to him by Rigby Graham. Rigby Graham MBE (2 February 1931 - 7 May 2015) was an English landscape and topographical artist who worked within the English Romanticism tradition. Graham trained as a mural painter at the Leicester College of Art. Graham lectured at the College of Art, firstly in Graphic Design and Printing, then in Education and latterly in Bookbinding. Graham illustrated more than 250 books and pamphlets and wrote extensively on art and artists. Graham retired from teaching in 1983. Many of the articles and reviews contained in this book were written for, and first appeared in, American Book Collector, The Private Library, Malta News, The Bulletin, American Notes and Queries, and one or two in small Threoteotha Press volumes. The title comes from an idea that so many things are part of something else and are often seen, judged, and appreciated or disregarded in relation to what they stand next to, or in the context of the sequence in which they are seen--like a string of beads. Dr. Lawrence Sidney Thompson (1916-1986) worked at the University of Kentucky as the Director of Libraries and as a faculty member in the classics department. He wrote extensively on the processes of printing and publication. Dr. Thompson also researched processes for cataloging materials, frequently corresponding with European colleagues. He was director of the Margaret I. King Library at the University of Kentucky from 1948 to 1963. Hardcover (several small chips at corners) Privately published, in a unnumbered Limited Edition of two hundred copies.
