Stapled sheets, originally held - and just holding - by three very light glue points to a dark grey folded card cover / jacket with the printing on the cover in dark gray. An 'as new' copy. Uncommon.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. The First UK printings published by The Gresham Press (Gresham Books Ltd), Old Woking in 1981. 2 Vols., small Folios; finely hand-bound by E. A. Weeks & Son in quarter blind-stamped calf over marbled paper-covered boards; spines lettered and lined in gilt; numerous reproduced engraving…s throughout both texts, as well as an additional suite of 62 loose plates housed in a flap-case to the rear of 'Confessions' as issued ; The BOOKS very near Fine copies both, with light scattered foxing to the calf, mostly affecting 'George Mackley'. The books are protected in removable Mylar covers. A wonderful set of two important books by George Mackley. 'Confessions' limited to just 250 hand numbered copies, this no. '89', signed by Mackley to the limitation page. The book was produced as part of a memento of the exhibition of his wood engravings at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford in November 1981. Also included here is a rather modest four page H/W letter from Mackley to fellow artist Ann Le Bas, thanking her for her kind words regarding his MBE. Mackley recalls a trip taken to Winsford, when he was caught in a rainstorm with his wife and her family and took refuge in a nearby pub. He goes on "what fine support you and Monica [Poole] have given to the painter-etchers. You have spent many hours working when help was needed." Dated in 1983, the artist continues "As I fear is only too apparent, writing has become difficult for me. As fatigue sets in, calligraphy, spelling and sensible expression falter. my first stroke completely destroyed my engraving skills, such as they were". He concludes "I hope that you are pursuing your pleasure in the practice of your favourite media and that you are meeting with success of every kind. I see that my strength is failing, so I will thank you for your sending one of the kindest messages which I have received from anybody and ask you to accept my very best wishes. May all go well with you." Mackley passed away just a few months after this letter was written, and a newspaper clipping containing an obituary is also loosely included with this set. The recipient, (Rachel) Ann Le Bas was born in 1923, and studied at the City & Guilds of London Art School under A. R. Middleton Todd, Rodney Burn and Henry Wilkinson. Living and working in Exmoor for the majority of her life, she was elected member of the Royal Society for Painter-Etchers and Engravers in 1960, the Art Workers Guild in 1969, and the New English Art Club in 1972. Her artworks drew heavily on her surroundings, from cityscapes to countryside scenes of her beloved West Country, as well as still life and interiors. A profusely illustrated compendium of the works of George Mackley (1900-1983), a much-loved British artist who was trained as a teacher of art at the Goldsmiths' College in London before discovering the art of wood engraving through Noel Rooke, one of the founders of the Society of Wood Engravers). A fabulous association set. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact. Mackley, George et al. (illustrator). Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. The First UK printing published by The National Magazine Company, London in 1948. 8vo., black cloth, title lettered in yellow to upper cover and backstrip; together in the very elusive unclipped pictorial wrapper (15/- to front flap); upper edge…yellow top-stain faded ; with frontis engraving, and numerous other illustrations in black and white throughout text, including several diagrams and engravings by the artist; The BOOK a very good example with some very light mottling to boards; a little rubbed at spine tips; light spotting mostly affecting endpapers, prelims and upper edge; The scarce WRAPPER is in Very Good++ condition , a little rubbed along spine and folds, with two small holes to the lower panel and some losses to the head and foot, up to 1cm in depth, not affecting lettering. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. This copy inscribed by George Mackley to the front end-paper : "Your acquisition of this book is appreciated as a mark of your great interest in the woodengraver's craft, George Mackley". Together with five blank notecards featuring wood engravings, the two in colour 'hand printed from the box-wood block engraved by George Mackley' and initialed by him in pencil; and a folded handwritten letter, written in black ink by Mackley to Laurence Lee, the stained glass artist, together with the original hand-addressed, stamped envelope. Dated Christmas 1980, Mackley remembers Iain McNab (the noted wood engraver, who passed away in 1967), and apologises for not being able to send him a card "as you may know, the Society for the Maintenance of Aesthetic Standards struck me off their roll years ago and in consequence, wood blocks rest safely in their beds with no pressure from me". "If gravers cannot make marks on wood, a pen can still make marks on paper", he writes, "The marks here made are to the effect that I wish you a very happy Christmas." "The engraving practice in which I was engaged ended long ago", he concludes, "It is, however, very kind of you to take such a keen interest in the exhumation". A lovely first edition of this important book on the subject and craft of wood engraving, with chapters ranging from design, to preparation of the block, engraving tools and printing, and final sections concerning the works of Thomas Bewick and some other modern wood engravings. Copiously illustrated throughout, the book ends with eighteen pages of plates depicting the works of Agnes Miller Parker, Blair Hughes-Stanton, Gertrude Hermes and many others. George Mackley (1900-1983) was trained as a teacher of art at the Goldsmiths' College in London before discovering the art of wood engraving through Noel Rooke, one of the founders of the Society of Wood Engravers. This publication is still considered today to be one of the most important manuals concerning wood engraving techniques. The scarce first issue, with wonderful association material. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact. Mackley, George (illustrator). Inscribed by Author(s).

No Binding. Zustand: Fine. Size: Mount 25.5 x 27.5 cm. Print image 14.4 x 12.3 cm. Condition: Excellent condition. Mount new. This original print is from the collection of Iain Bain, an expert on printmaking and in the last part of his career head of publications at the Tate Gallery in London. It is identified as "The Boatman In…n" in the collection of the University of Connecticut, and as "Canal Inn" in the Bolton Museum and Art Gallery. Both examples are dated 1968-1969. This print was made from the original wood engraving, but is not signed by the artist and the paper used for this print is a fairly heavy flat wove paper. Most of Mackley's editioned prints were on laid paper and in editions of about 75 proofs. It is likely that this print was made from the original engraving by Iain Bain himself or under his direction. Please note this is an original print and not a lithographic reproduction of George Mackley's work, examples of which are commonly found. George Edward Mackley MBE (1900 -1983) was educated at the Judd School in Tunbridge, Kent, Mackley trained as a teacher of art at Goldsmiths' College, London, specializing in painting and etching. In 1935, he learned basic wood engraving technique from Noel Rooke. Mackley's book Wood Engraving, published in 1948, remains one of the leading manuals of engraving techniques. In A History of British Wood Engraving (1978) Albert Garrett described him as 'a phenomenon in British engraving. A few square centimetres of Mackley is more charged with aesthetic energy, emotion and precision than many artists can muster in a lifetime [.] He could not tolerate bad or weak craftsmanship under any circumstances; bad draughtsmanship met with short shrift from him. He makes no claims to being a creative artist and always stresses that he is primarily a craftsman.'.

* With handwritten postcard from the printer Will Carter * 2 Vols, folio, quarter green buckram lettered in gilt over strikingly decorative yellow Tatsumaki Japanese paper boards by Mansell of London, housed in the original card slip-case. ** Edition Limited to 250 numbered copies signed by the artist George Mackley. Designed an…d printed by Will Carter at the Rampant Lions Press in Monotype Arrighi types on Original Turkey Mill paper. *** The c.60pp text volume includes 11 wood engravings (3 full-page) by Mackley. The accompanying portfolio comprises an extra suite of Mackleyâs wood engravings specially printed on Japanese Hosho, a paper particularly favoured by wood engravers. *** An excellent copy but for the following faults : a few light marks and scuffs to the protective slip-case : a couple of light scuffs to the surface of the paper binding of the text vol (see photo) : a few light fox spots to each of the illustrations contained in the additional portfolio of engravings. *** ** Will Carter Association : this copy with a witty handwritten postcard from Will Carter dated 9 Sept 1965 and addressed to L. Veale, a print tutor at the Berkshire College of Art. Veale had evidently drawn Will Carterâs attention to one or more errata in the text, to which Carter replied, quoting Paul Standardâs very recent Chapters on Writing & Printing (Anvil Press, Lexington, Kentucky 1963 : 134 copies only) : â âNote on errata - it is said that the polite Chinese intentionally leave errors in their books in order that the reader, on finding them, may feel superior.â (cf. Chapters on Writing and Printing) Thanks for your cheque. Will Carterâ. *** This is the first of two superb books printed by the Rampant Lions for The Two-Horse Press (Armida Colt and her husband, hence the two Colts = The Two-Horse Press). It was followed in 1968 by the Coltsâ magnificent collection of wood engravings by George Mackley titled Engraved In The Wood. *** Weeds and Wild Flowers is a scarce and uncommon Rampant Lions book. It was included in The Grolier Club Exhibition of 1999 titled A Century for the Century : Fine Printed Books 1900 â" 1999, a survey of 100 books outstanding for their âbeauty and excellenceâ, an attempt âto cull the best of the beautiful books of the entire centuryâ. **** To order this book, please click the link Ask Bookseller A Question.
