The First UK edition, which includes an original linocut, 'Crossing the Road' by Claude Flight printed from the artist's original lino blocks in red, cobalt blue and black. Flight was educated at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art, which had been founded by the Scottish wood engraver Iain Macnab in 1925. It was there that the art of original linocut was first pioneered in the UK and Flight, surrounded by a team of talented young artists and teachers including Cyril Power and Sybil Andrews, soon began teaching there himself. Known for championing MacNab's principles of rhythms, counter-rhythms, sweeping lines and carefully organised sequences of differing colours, Flight is remembered today for developing the art of lino cutting to its full potential. His students later included the artists Margaret Barnard, Leonard Beaumont, Dorrit Black and Diana Drew. Published relatively early on into his career, the present work includes plates by Diana Drew, who at age just 13 and 15 shows "good direct cutting of well-arranged imaginative design" and "a more mature conception based on visual facts". The in-text illustrations further show various tools needed for lino cutting, including oil stones, gouges, burnishers and rollers. Increasingly scarce as the first issue. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact. Flight, Claude (illustrator). …
