A very nice artefact relating to a beautiful Rampant Lions production, published in 1975. Printers' dummy, produced to indicate the intended layout of the book, consisting of duplicated typed leaves, with emendations and printing instructions in manuscript, showing the intended arrangement of the 125 pages of letterpress (and including an alternative version of p.78), with eleven illustrations loosely interleaved. In good condition, lightly aged and worn. A bifolium of watermarked grey wove paper, carrying a proof of the duotone title ('Root & Sky' in mustard yellow, the rest in black), is loosely inserted at the front. The typed leaves are laid down onto 33 x 25 cm leaves of thick wove paper, all in bifoliums, loosely collected into nine sections, with each section numbered at the front in pencil, and with 'C. F.' in red ink at top of first page of each of the nine sections. 'Christopher Fry' in pencil at the head of the very first page. Ten of the eleven illustrations are printed in pairs, from the contents it is clear that loose illustration, facing p.54, should have a conjugate one facing p.43. In worn brown card folder, with elastic clasp and manuscript label on front: 'CHRISTOPHER FRY DUMMY | ROOT | and | SKY'.

Unbound. Zustand: Near Fine. Portfolio. Twenty engraved plates and one contents card laid into a four-fold chemise of leather over watered silk. The engraved cards are nicely printed on either white or pale pink cards measuring 5" x 7" with rounded corners and gilt edges. The engraved cards are bright and about fine with the author's name penciled neatly in a tiny hand on the unprinted verso (and one with a small penciled note on the front); contents card a trifle foxed with one tiny edge nick. Housed in the worn remains of the four-fold chemise that is lacking several panels, including the front cover. We located a couple of examples in the trade of the same engravings but bound accordion-style into cloth. In that case, the publisher's information was printed at the bottom of the contents card; we are unsure why it was removed for this iteration.
