Fourteenth edition. Recent craft binding of quarter light green leather and light blue cloth boards, six raised bands, with gilt titles to the spine and also in dark green to the upper board. Marbled endpapers. With a black and white frontispiece, 24 black and white plates, and various small black and white line-drawn diagrams,…typography and illustrations throughout. An errata slip is tipped in facing p. 430. Printed in black and variously in red throughout. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, with a small brown mark to the upper board, and some fading to the lightly rubbed spine and the extreme top edge of the upper board. The contents, with a college stamp to the title page and a little toning and light spotting to the top edge of the closed text block, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions. 12 page publisher's catalogue to the rear. Widely regarded as 'the father of modern calligraphy' (with Rudolf Koch), Edward Johnston's handbook, reissued here, was first published in 1906 while he was teaching at the Royal College of Art in London. Johnson has since been credited with inventing 'the foundational hand' (originally called 'the slanted pen hand'), a simply crafted round calligraphic handwriting style written with a broad pen, which he explores several times in this volume. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
