Item description from seller

The first complete collection of the prestigious engravings of Reynolds Stone, whose artwork is recognisable on bank notes and postage stamps among other mediums. The first editions of Reynolds Stone Engravings, being the first complete catalouge of Stone's artwork, with an appreciation by renowned British art historian Kenneth Clark. Published in 1977, two years before the artist's death. In the publisher's original cloth, in the original unclipped dust wrapper. Contains numerous in-text and full-page illustrations of Stone's artwork, including those in colour. An artist whose iconic work was perhaps more famous than the individual, Stone was considered among the best engravers of his generation. As seen in this catalogue, his engravings survive on stamps, royal emblems, and coats of arms today, being used on postage stamps and bank notes. He was elected a member of the Society for Wood Engravers in 1948 and Royal Designer for Industry in 1956. In the publisher's original cloth, in the original unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, very smart, with minimal marks to boards. Slight bumping to the head and tail of the spine, and to the extremities. Dust wrapper is bright and mostly clean with the odd small mark. Minor creases to wrapper edges. A closed tear to top front wrapper edge and bottom rear edge. Grey end papers are bright and clean. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Near Fine.…
