Description:
Middlesbrough: Hoods Fine Printers, on behalf of the author, 1930. Collection of 16 bound lithographs. Hardcover, 41cm x 28cm. Cream and orange cloth binding, with title and South Durham Cargo Fleet Steel stamped on the covers. Cards are slightly marked. Each titled on the tissue-guard. Titled tissue-guards are present for all 16 lithographs. Some of the tissue guards have very light folds, and the lithographs themselves are in near fine condition. Viva Talbot's importance as an industrial artist of great talent has largely been forgotten, but her unprecedented access to the British steel industry, primarily through her family connections, enabled her to achieve a degree of accuracy and depth that provides valuable historical, industrial, and artistic insight. Her recent small popularity has largely been empowered by the rediscovery of her talent and ability by Dr. Joan Heggie of Teesside University. Scarce.

Description:
[New York]: Sponsored by the Academy of American Poets, 2004. First edition. One of 200 copies. Six folded leaves, housed in a card portfolio. Each folded leaf has a holograph poem reproduced upon it in with an illustration of the poet, and an inserted glassine leaf with the poem printed out in plain. Essentially six illustrated greetings card style presentations of the poems with inserted sheets. The introduction is by Tanning, who at that time would have been 94 years old, and describes the emotional and artistic impact of seeing a poem in the author's own hand. The poems contributed are from Adrienne Rich, Richard Wilbur, W.S. Merwin, Richard Howard, A.R. Ammons, and Anthony Hecht. Although she had produced many poems and prose pieces throughout her long, important and vibrant career, Dorothea Tanning didn't publish a book of poetry until 2004. Difficult to describe, simple to appreciate. A satisfying object in every way!
