Description:
Grey Walls Press , 1943 . First printing in a price-clipped jacket. The pale jacket is heavily foxed, & marked with cup-rings. The boards are worn & threadbare at the edges. There is a little damage to the top of the ffep, apparently due to the page becoming stuck to the front pastedown in the production process: the small missing patch of paper is still glued to the front pastedown. The book is slant, with the front cover set forward. There is some foxing to the outer edge of the page-block. The frontispiece & text pages are in very good condition, with some foxing to the final page.

The project was to be abandoned in 1947, after Todd moved to New York, but not before a great deal had been achieved.
Ruthven Campbell Todd (pronounced 'riven') (14 June 1914 – 11 October 1978) was a Scottish poet, artist and novelist, best known as an editor of the works of William Blake, and expert on his printing techniques. During the 1940s he also wrote detective fiction under the pseudonym R.… Read More
