Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. The sole UK printing published by the Kynoch Press, Birmingham in nd (1932). The BOOK is in Very Good+ condition. Original buff cloth printed in red with an illustration to upper cover. The boards are slightly splayed and a little darkened to the edges with some very lig…htly rubbing in places. Some age related markings to the boards. The spine is toned and darkened but the red titling is legible but faded. A small dark mark to the upper spine tip. Internally, the previous owner has neatly penned entries on ten pages and on one page of the 'Notes' section' to the rear (see images). The book is protected in a removable Mylar cover. Ravilious provides a headpiece illustration at the beginning of every week, those at the beginning of the month in red and the others in black and white. The Kynoch Press was the in house printing division of I.C.I. and their notebooks were in effect diaries for the use of employees and customers. As well as all the company printing it executed independent fine printing, particularly under the aegis of Herbert Simon from 1922-33 when it commissioned several notable artists. The limitation is unknown but this is a very scarce title to find in any collectible condition, with less than a handful of copies having appeared at auction in the last 30 years.

Ajouter au panierFirst edition, first impression, highly uncommon in the fragile glassine jacket. Published in an edition thought to be 2,000 copies, High Street was never reprinted, as the original lithograph stones were destroyed during the Blitz when the Curwen Press premises in Plaistow, East London, received two direct hits. The Country Lif…e warehouse was also a victim of the London Blitz, hence the rarity of this publication. As a result of the bombing at that warehouse, copies of Mervyn Peake's Captain Slaughterboard Drops Anchor (1939) were also, famously, lost. Ravilious's beautiful and evocative book "had a long gestation, starting from an idea of Helen Binyon's [a contemporary of Ravilious at the Royal College of Art] for an alphabet of shops, but also resembling certain of the lithographed 'Père Castor' children's books from Paris that Ravilious collected, such as Faites votre marché, by Natalie Parin, of 1935, which was intended to be instructive as well as decorative. Ravilious deliberately looked for odd shops with special and often Victorian visual appeal" (Powers, p. 22). A review of the book in The Manchester Guardian noted "High Street. is in a category by itself. Mr. Eric Ravilious presents two dozen attractive coloured drawings of different kinds of shops, while Mr. J. M. Richards, lifting the veil of secrecy, tells us what goes on in each case behind the scenes". Alan Powers, Eric Ravilious: Imagined Realities, 2012; The Manchester Guardian, 9 December 1938. Octavo. Monochrome vignette title page and 24 colour lithograph plates by Ravilious. Original lithographic boards printed in brown, blue and black, spine lettered in black. Original glassine dust jacket with printed card flaps. Extremities a little rubbed, some foxing; slight loss to glassine spine and other creases or short tears to unclipped jacket: a very good copy in like jacket.
