Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. GEORGE W. JONES Printer Laureate. Lawrence Wallis. The Plough Press, Nottingham. 2004 First Edition ISBN 090281320X 128pp Illustrated Hardback. George W.Jones(1860-1942) was one of the most respected and celebrated fine printers of his generation. He entered the printing business in 1873 (at the young age of 13) and joined the printing house of Raithby & Lawrence in 1883. In 1889 he became an independent printer and publisher adopting vigorous business policies towards graphic design and technology. He flirted with many typographical styles and influences but it was the work of William Morris which endured to permeate the later work. His approach to technology was progressive and avant-garde and he was one of the first users of the Linotype machine producing some beautiful compact composition on the equipment. He was also a vanguard exponent of trichromatic halftone letterpress printing and produced the first British book to be illustrated by this process. In 1921 he was appointed printing adviser to the British arm of the Linotype organisation and he became directly responsible for the creation of a number of distinguished typefaces for linecasting, including Granjon, Estienne, Baskerville and Georgian. This is the first extensive study of his life and work and provides an important chapter in the literature of printing. This copy is in FINE condition in a FINE unclipped dustwrapper. Ref N2.…

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
