Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Fine. 31x21cm, [2pp]. A single leaf, printed recto and verso in 20-point Spectrum italic in red on John Mason's peach 'Silurian' paper, mounted in overlapping maroon card covers with colophon printed in black on the back cover. A single leaf from 'Unless the Grain Die', published by Stanbrook in 1961, beginning 'When Jesus had lifted up his eyes .'. A handsome piece of Stanbrook printing, uncommon in this offprint version and particularly scarce on the John Mason paper. Butcher notes in his SAP bibliography that 'Only a small quantity was available on the John Mason paper'. This very distinctive paper was used throughout the special editions of the book itself, and for a few selected leaves in the ordinary edition. Fine. Butcher D6.
