9" x 12". paste-paper covered boards, paper label on cover and spine, slipcase. 68, (3) pages. Limited to 96 copies, of which this is one of 50 numbered and signed copies. The Bone Folder is the fifth, and most ambitious, publication of the Boss Dog Press. A letterpress edition of Ernst Collins Der Pressbengel, translated from the original German by Peter D. Verheyen, the text is a dialog between a fictional bookbinder and his equally fictional patron, with the goal of educating bibliophiles about the processes of hand bookbinding. The dialog is carried out over six days, Monday through Saturday, with a different subject each day. Monday covers forwarding; Tuesday is decorated papers, leather and vellum; Wednesday, paper case bindings; Thursday, quarter leather bindings; Friday is full leather binding; Saturday describes gold tooling.The original edition was published in 1922, and has been reprinted in other languages; the first English translation was made available in the 2009 Guild of Book Workers Journal, and also as a downloadable pdf from Peters Pressbengel Project blog. The text is augmented by a bio-bibliographical study of the history of the Collin family, three generations of whom were bookbinders of significance in Germany from the mid-1800s to World War II. In addition the text is complemented by the inclusion of seven photographic images, a frontispiece, and an enlarged image of Ernst Collins handwritten signature. paste-paper covered boards, paper label on cover and spine, slipcase.

Wrappers. Condition: Fine binding. Oblong octavo. [2], 58, [4] pp. Limited edition, one of 100 numbered copies. Printed letterpress by Andrew Miller-Brown at the Janus Press in black, red, and brown in Palatino and Gill Sans. The text and glosses are in Latin, Old English, and English. Bound as issued, sewn longstitch into Gray Flax Canal from Papeterie Saint Armand and housed in a shellacked wooden slipcase. A fine copy. Aelfric's Colloquy was written in England around the year 1000 to teach novice monks conversational Latin. Unusual among instructive texts, it takes the form of a dialogue between tradespeople and laborers about whose work is the most important, each highlighting their trade's necessity and often bemoaning its difficulties. Amidst this dialogue there is discussion outlining the way in which there is coordination between trades to form a functioning social structure-teaching Latin and civics simultaneously. In this regard, the colloquy offers important insight into Anglo-Saxon society. The new translation by W.R. Johnson is arranged between the original Latin and an early Old English gloss presenting the text line by line in three languages. Miller-Brown has composed the book so that the dialog takes place across each page spread, question and answer from left to right, a quality that makes each spread varied and visually engaging. It was announced in March 2012 that Aelfric's Colloquy was one of two runners-up for the thirteenth Carl Hertzog Award for Excellence in Book Design. One judge of the competition, Bryce Milligan of Wings Press, said, "Obviously a work in homage to a beloved text, Aelfric's Colloquy reflects the age and culture of Aelfric in its external design, the texture and color of the cover recalling rough woolen monk's robes and the handmade box feeling very much like the consciously un-ornate wooden book covers of a monastic library's most used texts. Both lend gravity to what some today might consider a slight text, but which really has a long and important legacy. The typography and layout echo the unusually spacious original manuscript, and its tri-lingual text is an expansion of the interlinear glosses of the original. Finally, the occasional and judicious use of color adds just the right amount of almost inexplicable levity, similar to that which one finds peeking through Aelfric's text.".…

Original Wrappers. Condition: Fine binding. First Edition. Quarto. 40, [4] pp., pop-up. Limited edition, one of 150 numbered copies. Signed by Van Vliet, Holden, Miller-Brown. Bound by Audrey Holden in pulp-painted covers by Van Vliet and Katie MacGregor. who also created the pulp painting background for the centerpiece pop-up. Text is printed in Victor Hammer's American Uncial with wraparound commentary in Monotype Plantin by Andrew Miller-Brown. All housed in a paste-paper over boards clamshell with birch sides; boldly titled on the spine. A fine copy. A remarkable rendering of the 2nd century Gnostic Gospel. Van Vliet's edition is a wonderful marriage of early and modern printing: the design echoing early printing, islands of text within a sea of commentary. Similarly, the choice of American Uncial, a typeface modeled by Hammer after early letterforms from a century near to the time of this gospel's composition, recalls early books. But this is a remarkably modern printing with modern abstracted embellishments where we would expect to find illuminated illustration in an early manuscript. Every page of the scholarly edition is visually engaging-a rare marriage, indeed! As if this exceptional design was not enough, "the reader," in the words of John A. Buchtel, "reaches the center of the book and, unexpectedly, the pop-up explodes out of the mottled purple and blue pulp painted page spread in the vivid multiple colors of Katie MacGregor's handmade papers. Its abstract design echoes the diagrams elsewhere in the book, and its sense of rising expansiveness is reinforced by the radiating silver paper strips woven through the surface of the pulp painting. . . . The pop-up is emblematic, perhaps, of a sudden realization-an epiphany-as the soul moves 'upward from its bondage to the flesh and the lower world to its liberation in the higher celestial realm.'" p. 48. A stunning work. Buchtel, John A. The Art of Paper: Claire Van Vliet and the Janus Press: Papermaking Collaborations (2024). Signed.…
