About This Item
[Nevada City, CA]: Gateways, 1987. First edition, number 61 of 100 signed copies. 4to, [83]pp, recto only. Each page consists of a hand-pulled lithograph by the artist. Signed by Gold at the colophon. Black leatherette cloth boards with gilt lettering on front cover and spine. Lightly bumped at upper corner and head of spine. Near fine.
One of the more scarce volumes from E.J. Gold's Secret Talks series, this being made up entirely of Gold's original art. These books were written by Gold in the 70s and 80s and privately published in a small number and sold on a subscription basis. The series prints talks and writings given by Gold which revolve around the mystical teachings of Gurdjieff. Titles include The Human Biological Machine as a Transformational Apparatus, Objective Prayer, The Seven Bodies of Man, Science of Objective Hypnotism, Angelic Invocation, and others.
Quite an impressive volume as an art book, completely hand printed by the artist, and a very rare volume in this important mysticism series from Gold. .
