Description:
Private Libraries Association, Pinner, first edition, 1991. Patterned cloth, 8vo, 27 cm,. 184 pp, 16 colour plates, many ills. From the preface: "Morris Cox started the Gogmagog Press in 1957, when he was in his mid-fifties, intending to publish for himself the poetry that he could not get published elsewhere. To his poetry he was to add original prints of great beauty, making books which I have long thought to be among the most important to come from any of the post-war private printers. Some collectors have sought his books for the excitement of their prints, some for the quality of the text; for myself it has been the originality of his temperament, displayed in text and prints combined, that I have found so desirable. The editions have been so limited that his work has only been at all well known to a small handful of collectors, and we hope that this account of his press will make him more generally, more properly known. He has himself been very reclusive, pleading that many visitors would…

Description:
Pinner: Private Libraries Association, 1991. First edition. Hardback. 184pp. No jacket. Morris Cox started the Gogmagog Press in 1957, when he was in his mid-fifties, intending to publish for himself the poetry he could not get published elsewhere. To his poetry he would add original prints, making books with huge skill, creativity and artistic genius. The editions have been so limited that his work has only been at all well known to a small number of collectors. This book is a tribute to the brilliance of Morris Cox and his work at the Gogmagog Press - as author, artist, and printer, creator of some of the most original hand-printed books in the latter part of the twentieth century. Book in near fine condition. A couple of very small marks to boards. Internally very clean and unmarked.
