1st edn. Hardback in d/w. 135pp. Illustrated throughout in colour & b/w, both full page and within text. Green cloth boards with gilt titles to spine. Boards clean, bright, square and sharp. Internally clean, bright and tight, SIGNED by Chris Wadsworth to title page, A FINE otherwise uninscribed copy. In nr FINE unclipped d/w.This is an extraordinary story of an unlikely friendship between Percy Kelly, an artist who was originally a postal worker in West Cumbria and ]oan David, a retired scientist and art collector. lt is told through a unique series of illustrated letters which were sent over a period of ten years. Though Percy and Joan only met five times during that period, these letters follow the hopes and concerns of a talented artist with many problems which were often self-inflicted. The letters are full of vivid memories which give insight into life in the twenties as part of a large working-class family, through the war years in active service and a quest for further education as a mature student. They follow his progress as a working artist who is able to socialise with nobility but is unable to sustain relationships. This is a lavishly illustrated book in which we can imagine and share the delight with which these letters were received along with the decorated envelopes and enclosures of little paintings, drawings, puzzles and sketches. The landscape, seasons, weather, animal and plant life are keenly observed in detail through the eyes of a very sensitive artist. We are privileged to be invited to share these wondrous things.
