Add to basketHardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Stan Dobbin (illustrator). 1st Edition. This is an unsigned copy out of an edition of 186, and it came from Stan Dobbin's studio so it was his personal copy. It is cased (not all copies were) and it has the original brochure loosely laid in printed for its publication. Jack Clemo, a blind poet and the son of a clay kiln worker, wrote the poems and Stan Dobbin produced 12 woodcut prints from which the illustrations are made. The poems capture the spirit of the clay mining area around St Austell and Charlestown in a day before tourism had discovered the area, and revitalised it, perhaps not in a way all would condone.

Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Very Good. Stan Dobbin (1932-2021) (illustrator). Size: Frame 45.5 x 55.5, print to image 35.5 x 46 cm. Condition: Print in good condition, in good used frame. This print was displayed in the artist's studio and has even age toning. The frame is a replacement. This woodcut print was created in around 1990, when Stan Dobbin was living at Newton Abbot in Devon. Stan created a series of woodcut prints at that time for use to illustrate a book of poetry by Conrish poet Jack Clemo centred around the Cornish clay mining industry. This was one of those prints and it is an artist's proof, quite likely that from which the book illustration was made. We do not know if other proofs were made or if so in what numbers. Stan Dobbin studied art from 1947-1952. After that, he taught at Newton Abbot and then Manchester school of art until his retirement in 1984. He was very influenced by the German Expressionists and the British neo-romantic school. He was an active member of the Manchester Fine Art Society. This print is from Dobbin's studio sale.
