Description:
New York: Vincent FitzGerald & Company, 1991. One of 25 copies, text on Apta Royale Laid Richard de Bas paper (made in 1938), images on Musee paper, backed on custom-made papers by Paul Wong on Dieu Donne' Papermill. Page size: 16 inches x 16 inches. Bound by Zahra Partovi in Coptic-style mauve-grey silk over boards, box by David Bourbeau, Thistle Bindery, fine. Six original line etchings by Susan Weil are hand-painted in watercolor and gouache with gold-leafing throughout, each mounted on museum board. These images surround the 40-page text when sitting in the box and when lifted out become three-dimensional paintings. There are also two original collages in the text and on the boards of the cover which is printed in three colors. The calligraphy is by Jerry Kelly and the letterpress is by Dan Keleher at Wild Carrot Letterpress. Susan Weil's third Joyce book takes an excerpt from FINNEGAN'S WAKE and it is as much as tour de force as her previous two. The box itself is a piece of sculpture, and…

Description:
Stamford: The New Overbrook Press, 1984. This copy in a unique binding by Jack & Emma Craib: full black morocco with mother-of-pearl onlays forming design of characters from the play climbing out of the cylinder tube in which Beckett has set the play. The design reveals itself as a pictorial image only with the use of an anamorphoscope which is a 6 inch silver tube sitting on top of one of the marble onlays. Limited to 250 copies on Rives, each copy signed by Samuel Beckett. Each of the seven etchings is hand-numbered and signed by the artist, Charles Klabunde. Charles Klabunde, master engraver, was born in Nebraska where he spent the first two formative decades of his life. He received his MFA at the University of Iowa where his unusual talents were discovered by master print-maker Mauricio Lazansky who invited Klabunde to join his Print Workshop. Following his one-man exhibition at The Minneapolis Institute of Art, the artist moved to New York where he established his own printmaking studio and…
