Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good- dj. Illustrated by (binding designed and drawn) Charles Mozley (illustrator). (No. 1). [paper-covered boards are nice and clean, just a bit of bumping/browning along the edges, very faint musty odor to book, a bit of foxing on the last page; the original clear acetate dust jacket is present and in fairly nice condition, although wrinkled and a bit shrunken (it's now about 1/4" shorter than the book itself at both the top and bottom edges)] (B&W photographs, B&W and color graphics) The second issue of this somewhat pretentious hardcover publication, with an admitted bias towards the graphic arts. Included in this number: a feature on recent wood-engravings by Joan Hassall; an article about the 16th-century French printer Jean de Tournes, with numerous examples of his work; an interview with painter Christopher Chamberlain; the second installment of Helmut Gernsheim's series on "Aesthetic Trends in Photography, Past and Present" (illustrated by photos by Alfred Stieglitz, Man Ray and others, including a couple of terrific photos of Henri Toulouse-Lautrec; a portfolio of drawings and designs by Robert Stewart; an article on the work of sculptor Eduardo Paolozzi; "The True Illustrator," an essay on "what makes artists into true book-illustrators"; a 2-page discussion of the work of Jackson Pollock; "Ganesh Goes Into Print," an extract from V.S. Naipaul's novel "The Mystic Masseur"; reviews of a number of books. **** NOTE that additional shipping charges will be requested for international shipping of this slightly heaver than average item, or for Priority Mail service to U.S. destinations.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Poor. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 104 pages (complete). 'Motif' was well-ahead of its time despite its short life of only thirteen issues. Ruari Mclean stated in the first issue that this was 'a periodical for which the visual world exists' and that it was for 'the non-specialist, the ordinary man . who is prepared to use his eyes to find out and evaluate what he likes". In its lifetime and in this issue 'Motif' beautifully and thoroughly covered all forms of visual art. This issue is thrilling in its breadth and concept. The cover by Laurence Scarfe is worn; the spine has damage to the head. Yet, it is vivid and shiveringly vibrant. The contents are sure, confident, urbane, clean, clear, tight, sensationally exciting. fk. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 13 vols. 4to. 31 cm. Orig. decroative boards (1-9), or semi-stiff wrappers (11-13). Very good or fine. An unusually nice set. ?Over the course of thirteen issues, published from 1958 to 1967, Motif ran meticulously researched and beautifully illustrated articles about painting, sculpture, art education, graphic design, typography and lettering, illustration, photography, architecture, wood-engraving, and the history of the graphic arts. ?Visual culture? had yet to become a category of academic study and Motif?s urbane editor [Ruari McLean] and publisher [James Shand], whose careers began before the Second World War, would not have used the term. The magazine?s presentation of a wide array of visual arts on a more or less equal footing can nevertheless be seen as prescient [exemplifying] a new way of documenting and appreciating the [visible world].? Rick Poynor, ?The world made visible?, Eye Magazine 62, Vol. 16, Winter 2006. No. 11 is entirely devoted to James Mosley?s ?English vernacular: a study of traditional letterforms?, 96pp., profusely illustrated.
