GILL, Eric. [Signed presentation copy] — ERIC GILL ENGRAVINGS, 1928-1933.

London: Faber and Faber, 1934. Folio, green cloth, gilt, b/w plates with tissue guards; the artist’s ink dedication inscription to front free endpaper, pale foxing to prelims and fore-edges, a very good copy, in unclipped dust-jacket, which has closed tears across spine and to folds over joints, and slight wear to extremities, housed in original green slipcase with printed label to front panel, which is missing top panel and otherwise rather worn and marked, now kept in fine purpose-made solander box with paper title label to spine. This volume was dedicated to Cliff Hoing, a local artisan in West Wycombe, an associate of Gill’s, who was known to have undertaken work fretting out his wood engravings, which were then filled with coloured gesso and sold. Inscription reads: ‘Cliff Hoing/from Eric Gill. Sept. 1934/with many thanks for his good work.’
