A propos de cet article

This fine unmarked copy is bound in red card with an illustration by Gertrude Hermes R.A. as issued. The text block is tight white, bright and square. This book was the third volume in a small series known as Patten People and was issued as a limited edition of 350 copies however on the limitation page is a hand wriiten note "out of series" International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Postage will be reduced on this slim volume. There is a coloured frontispece by Richard Chopping tipped in and five black and white photographs from the author's collection plus a woodcut dated 1530. Richard Chopping is probably best known today as the creator of dust-jackets for the publisher Jonathan Cape's Ian Fleming James Bond novels. From Russia with Love (1957), with its pistol and flower design, the skull and rose for Goldfinger (1959), and the slightly eerie spyhole and Ian Fleming's name-plate artwork for For Yours Eyes Only (1960) are distinctively Chopping's work. The creator of these confections, with their meticulous attention to detail and delicacy of colour, was, however, much more than a book-jacket designer. By the time they appeared, Chopping had established a reputation as a versatile illustrator who was noted for his depictions of natural objects such as butterflies, flowers, insects and fruit, based on close observation, as well as being a sympathetic teacher, busy exhibitor and author. Frances Catherine Partridge CBE (née Marshall; 15 March 1900 - 5 February 2004) was an English writer. Closely connected to the Bloomsbury Group, she is probably best known for the publication of her diaries. She married Ralph Partridge (1894 - 30 November 1960) The Patten Press published the series called Patten People most of whom lived in Cornwall. Ref C 3.…
