Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. RARE 1983 Complete 2-Vol Studio Set: Color for the Hand Papermaker - Elaine Koretsky (With Original Publisher's Letter). An extraordinary find for book-arts collectors, historians, or studio papermakers. This is a complete, first-edition 1983 two-volume set of the legendary masterwork "Colour for the Hand Papermaker" by Elaine Koretsky Published by the Carriage House Press, 1983. First Edition. What makes this specific set highly collectible is that it is a publisher-designated "Studio Edition", documented by an included original 1983 letter from the publisher. The letter details a fascinating production choice meant for working craftspeople: Part 1 (1983): In near fine condition. Spiral-bound except for the Index and the List of Suppliers, which were intentionally left un-punched and loosely inserted into the back by the publisher for easy reference at a papermaking workstation. Part 2 (1983): Very good condition. It is completely unbound/loose-leaf exactly as originally issued by the publisher to allow artists to mix formulas or custom-bind the text block. NOTE: A small piece is torn off the back cover sheet, but the text and formulas are entirely untouched. IMPORTANT NOTE ON SAMPLES. Please note that while some pages mention samples, this specific edition does not contain physical swatches, and it is clear from the clean pages that none were ever attached. This aligns perfectly with how Carriage House Press distributed these niche, studio-bound manuals to educators and artisans in 1983, where the technical text and formulas were the primary focus. The Publisher's Letter: Included in the sale is the original physical letter from Carriage House Press explaining these exact binding variations. This serves as spectacular historical provenance and proves the set is 100% complete and intentional as issued. This is a beautiful time capsule from the 1980's American hand-papermaking renaissance.
