He realises that the 'advancement' of the trusts 'is dependant to no small extent on the active interest of the Vice-Chancellor', and he and 'the many who are actively concerned in the progress of the Trusts, are very sensible of the gratitude we owe to you for the intentness of your co-operation during the last three years.'.

The Kelmscott Press limited edition of Sir Thomas More's "quintessential humanist dialogue" (ODNB), first published in Louvain in 1516. Quarto, original publisher's limp vellum with gilt titles to the spine, original silk ties, text printed in red and black in Chaucer and Troy types, 2 full-page woodcut borders and initials des…igned by William Morris. One of 300 copies printed by William Morris and edited by Frederick S. Ellis. William Morris believed that Utopia belonged in every Socialist's library. 40 copies of this edition were "ordered in advance by an Eton master, with the intention of distributing them as prizes among the boys of the college, but when the work appeared with a compromisingly Socialistic introduction by Morris, the order, from motives of prudence, had to be cancelled." Cockerell 16; Peterson A16; Sparling 16. In fine condition. Housed in a custom slipcase. An exceptional example. Thomas Moreâs Utopia (1516) drew on a rich tapestry of intellectual influences, including Platoâs Republic, St. Augustineâs De civitate Dei, Amerigo Vespucciâs accounts of the New World, and Erasmusâs Institutio Principis Christiani. These sources converged in Moreâs portrayal of an idealized society that critiqued the political and social structures of early 16th-century Europe. Utopia was "a tract for the times, to rub in the lesson of Erasmus; it inveighs against the new statemanship of all-powerful autocracy and the new economics of large enclosures and the destruction of the old common-field agriculture, just as it pleads for religious tolerance and universal education" (PMM). William Morris's Kelmscott Press edition of 1893 represented a significant moment in the bookâs reception history, aligning Moreâs humanist vision with the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement. Morris, a socialist and a key figure in the revival of traditional craftsmanship, saw in Utopia a kindred critique of industrial capitalism and social inequality. The Kelmscott edition, with its richly ornamented typography and hand-crafted aesthetic, emphasized the bookâs ethical and artistic value, treating it not merely as a literary classic but as a political and philosophical statement. By publishing Utopia in a form that rejected mass production and celebrated medieval design principles, Morris reinforced the textâs challenge to modern economic structuresâ"much like More had criticized the enclosure movement and the erosion of common-field agriculture in the 16th century.

An interesting letter, in which Webb sets out his approach to bookplate design. According to his entry in the Oxford DNB, 'By 1899 Webb was in poor health and losing money. His meagre savings were insufficient to build a cottage, so he accepted Caxtons, a four-bedroom sixteenth-century yeoman's house at Worth, near Crawley, Suss…ex, offered at a selflessly low rental by his friend William Scawen Blunt.' For the context of the present letter, see the letter from Webb to Sydney Cockerell, 1 September 1902, in volume 3 of John Apin's edition of Webb's letters. The present item is 1p, landscape 8vo, and consists of eighteen lines written in a tiny hand in pencil, with a number of ink additions that raise the possibility that it may be a draft. Addressed to 'Dear Mr. Holliday' and signed 'Ph: W.' In fair condition, on worn paper with a block of sunning. Folded into three equal sections by two vertical creases. He begins by stating that on 16 August Sydney Cockerel sent him [in a letter now in the British Library] an extract of one of Holliday's letters to him, beginning 'I suppose we are getting nearer to the time when Philip Webb will be at liberty to think about my book plate'. Webb's reply is: 'Now, & at this time, I can only answer with your word 'nearer' - for there is one in hand (or rather in rough idea) which has to be done before yours, on the principle of "first come, first served".' On the wider question he writes: 'I need scarcely add, that to do anything for you - which I thought passably fit to let go, would please me much; & therefore, I write the following with that not too forlorn hope. Cannot you think of something in your life, or of belongings, or fancy, or fact, which would be a hook on which to hang my [last word underlined] "fancy"? You see - or wd. guess, that I do not like to make such a design which has not some sufficient significance in it - great or small, - as the case may be - and for motive: when I have this it tethers me to some positive instead of a negative course; though I might add to or deduct from my brief according to the demands of decorative art - or my own wilfulness?' He turns to the 'third to be served' with a bookplate, John Feeney, proprietor of the Birmingham Daily Post. In that case 'the spirit is willing but the time and aptitude are but small. There is always a load on my spirit of things undone, when undoing to get into bed 365 nights in the year, so that I long to unship my pack of sin as Bunyan's "Christian" did his. What fellows these Cockerells & Walkers are for getting me into this "slough of despond"!' A postscript refers to 'Catterson Smith & the mace' (explained in John Apin's edition of Webb's letters).
