In den WarenkorbFirst edition, first impression, number 439 of 450 copies, presentation copy, inscribed "To Miss H.M. Wade-Gery from Robert Gibbings. 14-10-25" on front free endpaper. Gibbings took over The Golden Cockerell Press in February 1924. This copy was presented to the sister of H. T. Wade-Gery, the classical scholar and author of the…second book printed by the Press. This collection of poetry by Enid Clay, collects examples previously published in The English Review and the Observer. Gibbings had previously tried to involve Eric Gill in the work of The Golden Cockerell Press but the artist had refused as Gibbings was not a Catholic. When Gibbings sought to publish the work of Gill's sister, Enid, the artist commenced a long and productive relationship with the press. Chanticleer 25; Gill 274. Octavo. Eight wood-engraved illustrations by Eric Gill. Original buff cloth-backed blue boards, paper spine label. Bookseller's label to front pastedown. Head and foot of spine slightly bumped, extremities slightly sunned; a very good copy.

In den WarenkorbFirst Golden Cockerel Press edition, number 129 of 219 copies printed on Kelmscott handmade paper, retaining the seldom-seen original slipcase. Loosely inserted is the equally elusive publisher's prospectus for autumn 1926, describing this edition as "a larger and more elaborate volume than has hitherto been attempted." Troilus…and Criseyde was one of the first books that Eric Gill illustrated for the Golden Cockerel Press, having joined as chief engraver in 1924. Together with The Song of Songs (1925), Canterbury Tales (1925), and The Four Gospels (1931), it is one of "the classic examples of specialist book production of that period. For a while the Golden Cockerel was Eric Gill" (MacCarthy, p. 187). Gill's artworks "captured the whimsical interplay between words and images displayed in medieval illuminated manuscripts. In Troilus and Cryseide, Gill mixed full page illustrations with a combination of black and white lines and a rich assortment of shapes that presented a sense of motion. He created serpentine flora with simple figures to cushion the distinctive text. These border decorations reflect the narrative stanzas in an unassuming manner" (Berona, p. v). There were also six copies on vellum. Chanticleer 50; Gill 279. For the prospectus, see Cock-A-Hoop P50. David A. Berona, Eric Gill's Masterpieces of Wood Engraving: Over 250 Illustrations, 213; Fiona MacCarthy, Eric Gill, 1989. Small folio. Woodcut title page, 5 full-page woodcut illustrations, ornamental borders throughout by Eric Gill. Text printed in black, red, and blue in Caslon O. F. type. Original quarter niger by Sangorski & Sutcliffe, spine with raised bands, second compartment lettered in gilt, floral patterned paper-covered sides, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. Housed in the publisher's card slipcase. Publisher's prospectus loosely inserted. Hint of wear to corners, otherwise a fine copy in the slipcase, a little worn and with short split to one edge.

In den WarenkorbLimited edition, number 135 of 485 copies on handmade paper; a further 15 copies were issued on vellum. The Canterbury Tales was one of the "most important Golden Cockerel editions for which Eric Gill provided the engravings" and showcases his "originality and verve" (ODNB). This work was seen as one of the finest books to be pr…oduced by the press, exhibiting the ideals of the private press movement as if the "author, artist and printer have shared one concept and expressed it" (Franklin). An announcement of the edition within The Times Literary Supplement on 2 February 1928 noted a publication price of 25 Guineas. It also stated that the vellum copies (at 120 Guineas) had already been fully subscribed. The publication of the work was a major literary event and was widely covered in the press throughout the four-year publication period. A review within The Times Literary Supplement described the set as "a fine one" and noted that "each page is ornamented at the side with a conventional tree, at the top or bottom of which there are usually figures. These figures seems alternately to express an almost frivolous gaiety and a harsh ascetism. Gill portrays these attributes and characteristics of the Middle Ages as if they came down to us from a great distance, as pale now romantic shadows of what was once violent and robust. With this mood is at times combined a strain of Post-Impressionism, a modern flavour". The review concluded comparing the Golden Cockerel edition to the Kelmscott Chaucer, noting that Pre-Raphaelitism was "adaptable to new circumstances". The partners of the Golden Cockerel Press, Christopher Sandford, Owen Rutter, and Anthony Sandford, described the set in their bibliography of the press as simply "beautiful books". Chanticleer 63; Franklin 307; Gill 281. The Times Literary Supplement, 2 Feb. 1928, p. 79 & 18 April 1929, p. 310. 4 vols, tall octavo. Initials printed in red, blue, and black. With full-page illustration, 29 half-page illustrations, decorated borders, tailpieces, and line fillers, all by Gill. Bound for the publishers by Sangorski & Sutcliffe in brown quarter niger, spines lettered in gilt, patterned paper boards, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. Some wear to extremities, slight colour variance to morocco, minor cracking to front joint of vol. 1, minor browning to endpapers (as usual): a very good set.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition, first impression. Laid-in is a two-page autograph letter signed (on the back of printed galleys) from Mervyn Horder, prominent composer and, at the time, chairman and managing director of Gerald Duckworth & Co., Publishers, to the artist and illustrator Gwen Raverat. The letter concerns the commission of a press m…ark featuring the letter D and a duck; included are some trials by the artist which Horder is returning, with further suggestions. Gwen Raverat, a highly accomplished artist, was one of the foremost revivers of wood-engraving as a fine art in the 20th century and her skill is evident in the small sketches supplied. Folio. 16 plates laid into the linen-backed portfolio, blue boards, titles to front board in black, linen ties. One plate a little dusty, spine with some minor wear. Very good.
