Zustand: Good. Invoice from Hamady with embossed letterhead by Reynolds Stone and letter from Holly regarding the 119th book of the press.Walter Hamady (born 1940) is an American artist, book designer, papermaker, poet and teacher. He is especially known for his innovative efforts in letterpress printing, bookbinding, and papermaking exemplified in the productions of The Perishable Press Limited and the Shadwell Papermill, founded by Hamady in the mid-1960s. In 1966 Hamady joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin, Madison where he would teach papermaking, letterpress printing, and bookbinding for more than three decades.

36 unnumbered pages : illustrations. Imprint on title page: Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin, Pinprick [House] US(&A). Half-title page: Book one :: The reflections. "The paper is hand-made Shadwell handmade in the Hamady's barn. The edition is 225 copies."- publisher's advertisement. The book is presented as an alphabet book that details the history of Perry Township, Wisconsin, from the "earliest Creation of Life". 63 x 83 mm. It is well-known among collectors for its entry under the letter "X" for Xenophobia. In this section, Hamady draws a controversial parallel, stating that Hitler learned techniques for the destruction of races from the Federal Government's Indian policies. The subtitle identifies it as an "eye witness account of the first Druze settler to show up in driftless Wisconsin," reflecting Hamady's own heritage and his tendency to blend autobiography with fanciful fiction. This work is often cited as a prime example of Hamady's "meandering" and "irreverent" approach to bookmaking, where the craftsmanship of letterpress printing meets highly creative, often provocative, poetic writing.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. Hardcover. Number 108 of 200 copies of which 170 were for sale. The founder of this press and author of this book, Walter Hamady (1940 - 2019) was an American artist, book designer, papermaker, poet and teacher. He is especially known for his innovative efforts in letterpress printing, bookbinding, and papermaking. In the mid-1960s, he founded The Perishable Press and the Shadwell Papermill, and soon after joined the faculty at the University of Wisconsin?Madison, where he taught for more than thirty years. Noted for its fine handmade paper, distinguished typography and unique colophons, Hamady's Perishable Press challenged traditional notions of the book. Over the years, his press produced a body of work highly sought after by collectors -- books prized for their meticulous and complex physical structures, quirkiness and inventive collaborations between typesetter, binder and illustrator. [Wikipedia] Many Perishable Press books are notable for their innovative use of paper ? in addition to the Perishable Press, Hamady also operated the Shadwell Paper Mill ? and for Hamady's rambling, light-hearted, but highly informative colophons. Hamady's role as a teacher made the Perishable Press highly influential, with many of his students founding presses working in a very similar tradition. Hamady wrote in the prospectus that this wonderful book was begun in 1969, but took much longer to complete than anticipated. The text is in three parts. Part One is the Introduction. Part Two is about needs and equipment. Part Three, the longest section, is about procedures and techniques, and gives a detailed account of exactly how to make paper as they do it. It was worth the amount of time it took to write and make. It is a beautiful book replete with about 80 pages of handmade paper in five colors, some with text and six blank pages from other paper mills bound in as examples. Bound in light brown Irish linen cloth with title in blind to spine. The title page calligraphy was by Herman Zapf. With numerous illustrations, includine one signed by Walter Hamady. This very fine book was included in the Grolier Club's A Century for the Century. Measures 7 x 10.5 inches. About 42 pages of text plus paper samples. PRI/092024. Signed.
