About This Item

[Kathmandu, Nepal: Angus Maclise], 1972. Folio (15 inches). [10] pp., including in-text woodblock illustrations and 4 full-page woodblock prints tipped in. In original pictorial wrappers, all on handmade rice paper. Fine.

Numbered 144 of 150 copies, with editor's manuscript note in colophon, "corrections: | print 2: Arhat | print 3: Yabyum." The first of three issues of TING PA, a periodical of "Nepali poetry and songs, Tibetan magics & mantras old and new - in translations - and of course our poets/freaks writing in their native tongue, and woodblock prints, a specialty of Kathmandu, both traditional and original" (colophon). The numbered prints, from woodblocks supplied by Ian Alsop and Francis Brooks and hand-printed in Swayambhu by Ato Tamting Sija, show figures of Tibetan and Nepali Buddhism: Dakini, Arhat, Yabyum, and "Dancing Skeletons" (Citipati).
