Hardcover. Condition: Good. First edition, second printing. Folio. Lithographed calligraphic dedication. Later half red morocco. Second printing of the first edition of 1843 (possibly a first printing with amended title-page as few copies of the original were sold). Probably the grandest work from the early days of railways, con…taining many iconic images now familiar because of their use in subsequent publications. This copy is rendered particularly collectable due to the plates relating to the railways being brought to life skilfully by a contemporary colourist. Although the work is commonly attributed to Bourne, the descriptive text was actually written by George Thomas Clark, an engineer & respected geologist who worked with Brunel on two sections of the line and was responsible for the Basildon and Moulsford bridges. Like Bourne's representations of the London and Birmingham Railway, the work is one of the few detailed contemporary visual records of the construction methods and the scenery shortly after the completion of the railway, but in this case a smaller proportion of the illustrations show the construction work in progress. "This volume furnishes that information, with much other interesting; matter of a collateral nature. Mr. Bourne's lithographic drawings are already favourably known, and it is sufficient to say that he has displayed the same spirit, taste, and accuracy of delineation in this work as in his former subjects. The present views embrace thirty-six different points upon the Great Western, from the Paddington Station and the Hanwell Viaduct, to the Slough and Swindon Stations; and particularly the Great Box Tunnel, also the interesting scenery and works in the vicinity of Bath and Bristol. There are also fourteen architectural drawings as an Appendix, being views and details of the most remarkable ancient churches upon the line of the railway, their fonts, doorways, sepulchral effigies, &c." (The Gentleman's Magazine, 1846). Additional title with some slight wear to inside margin, letterpress title with foxing, some light staining mostly to lower fore-corner of early contents, mainly contained to the margins, overall internally very good. Abbey, Life 399; Ottley 5930. Hand-coloured lithographed additional title, 33 hand-coloured lithographs relating to railways, on 29 sheets, list of plates with lithographed vignette, 2 lithographed end-piece views on mounted india paper; 14 further lithographed illustrations on 4 shee (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Vol. 2, No. 10 - February 1945 - the tenth issue in the original series of the historic Poetry magazine, designed and edited by Tambimuttu. First impression of the true first edition, and the only issue of the magazine issued in hardcover, actually… published in February 1945, although the book states 'Published in December 1944' - publication was delayed due to operating under wartime conditions. With an eight page introductory piece by the editor Tambimuttu, and dedicated to the memory of the poet Keith Douglas, who was killed in action during the invasion of Normandy in the summer of 1944. The book contains three stunning full-page colour lithographs by Gerald Wilde, one of which is a double-page centre-fold, to accompany T. S. Eliot's "Rhapsody on a Windy Night". ***Near fine in the rarer light beige cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine (There is also a more common issue of the book in blue cloth). The gilt is still beautifully bright. The boards are very clean - just slightly marked with age and handling. None of the usual rubbing or browning to the boards. Corners sharp with just some creasing to the bottom corner tip of the back board. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Page block edges clean. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. None of the usual foxing - interior pages clean. Illustrations bright and clean. The lithographs are printed on high grade cartridge paper, printed from the original stones by the Baynard Press. No creases or tears. ***In a near fine colour illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 15s. net. The fragile dustwrapper is complete, which is very unusual for this book - the dustwrapper normally has some loss. The edges of the dustwrapper are rubbed and creased, but there are no tears and no loss. Head and tail of spine of dustwrapper also slightly creased and rubbed. Back panel of dustwrapper really clean (which is unusual, being a white background). Illustrated front panel of dustwrapper clean and bright. ***258mm x 192mm. x prelim-pages plus 264 pages. ***Contents: Poems, Illustrations, Prose, Art, Radio, Music, Points of View, Correspondence. Poems by various poets including Michael Hamburger, Henry Miller, Alan Ross, Stevie Smith, R.S. Thomas etc. Illustrations: three full-page colour lithographs including a two-page centrefold of T. S. Eliot's "Rhapsody on a Windy Night" by Gerald Wilde, and eight full-page drawings for "The Ancient Mariner" by Mervyn Peake. Also a full-page reproduction of a handwritten poem: "The Antiquary, 1944" by Augustus John. ***'There has been no other periodical since the Great War that has gathered so many poets into its pages.' - Francis Scarfe in 'Auden & After' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***First impression of the true first edition, published during the Second World War in February 1945, although the book states December 1944. Complete in its original thin wartime colour illustrated dustwrapper - the three full-page colour lithographs (one double-page) by Gerald Wilde are clean and bright and in very fine condition, and with the eight-pages of drawings by Mervyn Peake, and a full-page handwritten poem by Augustus John. Extremely scarce to find complete in the original dustwrapper - especially in the less commonly found light beige cloth binding. Of interest to collectors of poetry first editions, the publications of Poetry London, collectors of the illustrations of Mervyn Peake, and of the artwork of Gerald Wilde. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Mervyn Peake (Illustrations), Gerald Wilde (Lithographs and dustwrapper) (illustrator).
