One of 220 copies which include an original tipped-in copper engraving printed by Anthony Dyson at his Black Star Press, used as frontispiece. Quarter cloth and beautiful marbled sides (in a false Suminagashi pattern) made in Madrid by Antonio Velez Celemin, housed in a slipcase. A book in Fine condition in a Fine slipcase. Prin…ted in three editions by Sheffield-based Northend Creative Print Solutions. All three editions feature the same collection of more than 400 prints, comprising a full catalogue of all the artist's engravings, including surviving copper plates found in Wright's studio by his son following the artist's death. The 100 copy A edition was full bound in cloth with a letterpress-printed label (printed inhouse by Fleece Press owner Simon Lawrence on a circa 1930s Autovic). A further 220 copy B edition, featuring an original tipped-in copper engraving printed by Black Star Press included as a frontispiece, was quarter bound in cloth and marbled paper over boards, with a paper spine label, and housed in a slip case. The hand-marbled cover paper was produced in Madrid by Antonio Velez Celemin in a "false Suminagashi pattern" incorporating a large heart that the judges said provided a "considered link between the contents of the book and the cover. Lawrence said: "There's a large red and black heart in the middle of the marbling on the front of the book, which is incredibly clever and difficult to do with marbling. You have a bath of water with inks floating on top that you have to draw into a particular pattern that is then drawn into paper that has been primed with alum. Every single one is different." The final 40 copy C edition included four extra original prints housed in a separate folder; the book itself was quarter bound in vellum and enclosed in a clamshell box. Lawrence selected an uncoated paper from Swedish paper mill Lessebo Bruk for the book. Binding was done by the Finedon-based Fine Book Bindery, which also made the slip cases and boxes for the B and C editions. Separations were done by Ian Wright Creative.
