    Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Hardcover. Number 16 of 350 copies. The handsome bibliography of this esteemed press lists all books issued by the press from its inception in 1958 through those printed in 1980. The press continued to publish books until its founder, Henry Morris, closed the press in 2013. The bibliography is divided into two sections: those done under Morris's own imprint, and those done for other publishers. In his introduction, Taylor states that the technical descriptions of the books are fairly extensive but avoid a slavish view of completeness. The books issued with the press imprint include commentaries from Morris. In addition to these two sections, the book includes a section of selected ephemera, and one with citations to articles by or about Morris. This copy does not include the separate folder of press ephemera or the prospectus. Bound by Gray Parrot in covers with a repeated design of images of a bird or a bull, with a yellow spine with gilt titling. The spine as some sunning, and there is very light wear to the corners of the front cover. Printed on handmade Roma V.E. paper with the text composed in Van Dijck types by Mackenzie-Harris. Includes a detailed index compiled by Howell J. Heaney. In near fine condition. Measures 6.75 x 9.75 inches. v-vii, 13 - 108 pages. PRI/032124.

    Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Hardcover. Number 28 of 310 copies. The Bird & Bull Press was one of America's oldest private presses, started in 1958 by Henry Morris - who describes a private press as "someone who prints books or ephemera related to his personal interests." By starting the press Morris was hoping to "make use of the product of a new hobby - hand paper-making." Many of the books published by Bird & Bull dealt with book related subjects, such as paper-making, printing, illustration, book binding, and typography. Henry Morris and his press thus played an important role in the study, preservation, and dissemination of printing history. In 2013, Morris announced that he was ending his press's 55 years of activity due to advanced age and difficulty finding exciting projects. An interesting book from the press on the history of marbling paper and its role in the production of decorated paper in the Near East, Europe, and the New World. The craft was carried on extensively in Europe from early in the 17th century. Most notably, this volume includes thirteen original marbled samples provided by Wolfe. Each sample gives the name of its pattern and when it was mainly used. There is light offsetting from the samples to the blank versos of each sample page. Bound in multicolored marbled paper covers with black leather spine with orange title label. Printed in Cochin types on damped handmade Umbria paper and bound by Gray Parrot. In near fine condition. Measures 7 x 10 inches. 81 pages plus paper samples and two pages of notes on the text. PRI/031524.

    Hardcover. Zustand: Fine in very good slipcase. Hardcover. Number 469 of 500 copies. A beautifully produced book from the famed Bird & Bull Press. The Bird & Bull Press was one of America's oldest private presses, started in 1958 by Henry Morris - who describes a private press as "someone who prints books or ephemera related to his personal interests." By starting the press Morris was hoping to "make use of the product of a new hobby - hand paper-making." Many of the books published by Bird & Bull dealt with book related subjects, such as paper-making, printing, illustration, book binding, and typography. Henry Morris and his press thus played an important role in the study, preservation, and dissemination of printing history. In 2013, Morris announced that he was ending his press's 55 years of activity due to advanced age and difficulty finding exciting projects. The title refers to the repeated efforts by Prime Minister W.E. Gladstone in the 1860s to obtain information on Japanese papermaking. Under the guidance of Sir Harry Parkes, England's envoy during the period of the transfer of power from the shoguns to Emperor Meiji, three consular reports and a varied collection of handmade Japanese paper were assembled. These were shipped to England in 1871. This book describes these efforts, provides a facsimile of the Parkes Report, and a facsimile of the Kamisuki Chohoki woodcut illustrations. The book is accompanied by a separate portfolio of a set of color prints, of which two of the plates are missing. Both the book and portfolio are housed in a slipcase. Bound in a paper cover reproduced from a decorated paper in the Parkes Collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum, with a dark red leather spine with a black spine title label printed in gilt. It was bound by Gray Parrot. The text was composed in Van Dijck types and printed on Hahnemühle paper. The woodcut facsimiles are printed on handmade Japanese Torinoko paper. The book is in fine condition. The portfolio's gray paper covers are toned along the fore-edges as are the edges of the slipcase and just about very good. Measures 8.25 x 11 inches. 134 pages plus three fold out illustrations. PRI/120224.

    Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Hardcover. One of 275 copies (250 for sale) printed for the Bridwell Library by the famed Bird & Bull Press. An inscription in ink on the colophon states that this copy is "one of two printer's copies in a trial binding that was not used for the edition." This interesting book explores the famous feud between C.H. Cobden-Sanderson and Emery Walker over the ownership of the type of the renowned Doves Press. It offers a new perspective through the discovery by Michael Hornby, son of St John Hornby, of previously unknown correspondence between Cobden-Sanderson and St John Hornby, Sidney Cockerell, and Walker. The letters, mostly dated from 1906 to 1908, shed new light upon the controversy and provide fresh insight into the intensity of Cobden-Sanderson's preoccupation with the type. The unsigned inscription on the colophon was possibly written by Henry Morris, founder of the Bird & Bull Press. Morris founded his press in 1958 and continued to print their highly regarded letterpress books until his retirement in 2014. From Princeton University ".Morris's publishing program has been a boon to the historian of the book. He is correct when he writes, 'It pleases me to know that without the Bird & Bull, many books on worthwhile, albeit esoteric subjects would probably never have been published.' And all these works have been printed by letterpress from metal type on either Henry's own handmade or on imported mould-made papers." The inscription is written to Abe Lerner and Kit Currie "on the occasion of their visit here on Oct. 8/1983." Abe Lerner and his wife, Kit Currie, were both important figures in the world of books in the twentieth century. Abe Lerner (1908-2002) was a highly respected and talented typographer/book designer with links to the likes of the great Bruce Rogers. With a meticulous eye for detail and clean design, he was constantly working on new projects. With a career that landed him as the Director of Design and Production at Macmillan, President of the Typophiles, and lecturer at the Grolier Club in New York, Abe Lerner was certainly one of the finest typographic designers of the 20th century. Kit Currie began her career in the antiquarian book trade as the personal assistant for London bookdealer Bertram Rota. She moved to California in 1964 and began working at Dawson's Book Shop in Los Angeles, where she stayed for 14 years. She moved to New York City in 1977 with her husband, noted typographer and graphic designer Abe Lerner. Unable to find work initially, Currie ventured to start her own bookselling business, and issued her first and only catalog in the winter of 1977-1978. Soon afterward, however, she was offered a position with H. P. Kraus. Bound in brown paper covered boards with brown cloth spine. Title debossed in blind to front cover. Minimal wear to corners. Text pages are clean and bright. Printed in Centaur types on Bugra Bütten paper. Folded prospectus is inserted. In fine condition. Octavo. 31 pages. PRI/102423.
