No Binding. Condition: Near Fine. 20 X 14 Cms with margin 6cms. on all sides. James Clarence Mangan, born (1 May 1803, Dublin ? 20 June 1849), was an Irish poet. He freely translated works from German, Turkish, Persian, Arabic, and Irish, with his translations of Goethe gaining special interest. After the Great Famine in Ireland (he died in 1849 when the famine was still going on) he began writing patriotic poems, such as A Vision of Connaught in the Thirteenth Century. Mangan was troubled, eccentric, and an alcoholic. He died early from cholera. After his death, Mangan was hailed as Ireland's first national poet and admired by writers such as James Joyce and William Butler Yeats. Signed By the Artist.

An attractive item on four unpaginated folio pages, in a bifolium. Uncommon. In fair condition, lightly aged and creased, but not folded, with small closed tear at head of first leaf. Drophead title: 'No. 7 (New Series) July 1935. / A Broadside / Editors: W. B. Yeats and F. R. Higgins; Musical Editor, Arthur Duff. Published monthly at the Cuala Press, One Hundred and Thirty Three Lower Baggot Street, Dublin.' At bottom left of first page: '300 copies only.' At foot of last page: 'The illustrations on this Broadside are by Harry Kernoff, A.R.H.A.' Beneath the drop-head title is a large illustration of a man, newspaper under his arm, tramping home on a windy day along a country path to a cottage where a woman waits. It is coloured in green, pink, red, brown and grey. Beneath the illustration begins the poem to which it refers: Padraic Colum's 'A Ballad Maker', beginning 'Once I loved a maiden fair, / Over the hills and far away, / Lands she had and lovers to spare, / Over the hills and far away.' At the foot of the second page is Duff's score for the poem, which concludes at the head of the third page. It is followed by an illustration of an exotically-dressed lady washing her feet while sitting on steps in a Dublin street. It is coloured in green, blue, purple, red and orange. It is followed by an anonymous eight-line poem titled 'The Spanish Lady', beginning: 'As I was walking through Dublin City / At the hour of twelve in the night / Who should I see but a Spanish Lady / Washing her feet by candle light;'. At the head of the last page is a short musical score, headed 'Tune to "The Spanish Lady"'. The item is from the Lynd archive, and there are pencil notes of keys to both scores, apparently by Sylvia Lynd. Also in pencil, on the first page, is what looks like the word 'Oil', but by comparison with other items from the archive it is the price: '6d'.

Cap with Bells is a notable 1959 publication by Coburn Britton, produced by The Dolmen Press in Dublin. The book features woodcuts by Harry Kernoff and ink washes by Noel Sheridan, enhancing its visual appeal. The text includes Britton's poem "Three Christmas Bells," accompanied by Kernoff's illustrations and Sheridan's washes. The Dolmen Press, renowned for its high-quality productions, ensured that Cap with Bells was crafted with attention to detail, making it a valuable addition to any collection of mid-20th-century Irish literature. The Dolmen Press was a significant literary and artistic publishing house in Ireland, founded by Liam Miller in 1951. It played a crucial role in the revival of Irish book arts and the promotion of Irish authors during the mid-20th century. They became synonymous with producing beautifully crafted books, with a focus on fine typography and design. Contributing to the Irish book culture at a time when many Irish publishers were not as committed to the aesthetic quality of their books. Ref: Dict of Irish Biography, UCC Library, Cork; Irish Times; Wiki Coburn Britton, while an important figure in mid-20th-century Irish literature, is not typically considered one of the central figures in the Irish Literary Revival of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These authors were pivotal in shaping the national identity and cultural consciousness of Ireland through their works, particularly with themes related to Irish history, mythology, and the struggle for independence. Coburn Britton, born in 1901, was part of a later literary generation that emerged after the height of the Irish Revival. However, his work can be seen as part of the broader post-revival period, which continued to draw on the literary and cultural foundations laid by the Revivalists, even if Britton did not play a leading role in this movement. His poetry, which, like many Irish writers of his time, engaged with themes of Irish culture and history. However, his work was more introspective and focused on personal and spiritual exploration rather than the overt political and cultural nationalism that defined the earlier revival period. Ref: Britannica, Yale; History Press Harry Kernoff (19001974) was a significant figure in Irish art, particularly known for his contributions to the visual culture of 20th-century Ireland. His work spans a range of styles, from portraits and landscapes to urban scenes, and he was an integral part of the Irish artistic community during the early-to-mid 20th century. Kernoff's significance in Irish art comes from his exploration of modernism, his portrayal of Dublin's urban landscape, and his collaborations with the Irish literary scene, cementing his place as one of Ireland's important 20th-century artists.

Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. ILLUSTRATIONS BY: YEATS, JACK B; BROWN, VICTOR; O'SULLIVAN, SEAN; PEET, E.C; KERNOFF, HARRY; MCGONIGAL, MAURICE MUSIC BY DUFF, ARTHUR (illustrator). SIGNED LIMITED FIRST EDITION. SIGNED LIMITED FIRST EDITION OF W.B. YEATS'S BROADSIDES, ONE OF ONLY 100 COPIES SIGNED BY W.B. YEATS AND F.R. HIGGINS AT END OF INTRODUCTORY ESSAY AND ACCOMPANIED BY BREATHTAKING HAND-COLORED ILLUSTRATIONS. Collection of 12 broadsides originally issued individually from January-December 1935. Containing both traditional and new Irish ballads written by Yeats, F.R. Higgins, Padraic Colum, and others. With engraved music throughout. Numerous evocative and emotional hand-colored woodblock illustrations, including many by Jack B. Yeats, brother of the famed W.B Yeats. Only 300 copies printed, with only 100 copies bound and signed, making this production EXTREMELY RARE. Signed by Yeats and Higgins at the end of their preface, Anglo-Irish Ballads. "Yeats is now seen as one of a handful of Irish writers whose influence and example helped create twentieth-century modernist literature in the English language.his huge international reputation is securely based on the mystery and grandeur of his late verse and the poignancy of his love poetry, but he first came to fame as the exotically Celtic poet of a 'new' nationalist Ireland: almost single-handed, he made Irishness culturally fashionable. Spearheading a great cultural renaissance, he moved into his maturity as the voice of his country" (Oxford Dictionary of National Biography) . It was not merely Yeats, however, who is responsible for arousing Irish patriotism. The Cuala Press, a small press started by Yeat's sister Elizabeth, is regarded as one of the first publishing houses to bring attention to Irish literature, art and music. Her production of Broadsidesis no different. "The glory that once was Ireland and could again be Ireland was the fire that burned unquenched in the mind and will of Elizabeth Corbett Yeats" (Colby Library Quarterly) . Dublin: Cuala Press, 1935. Small folio, original cloth backed boards with paper label to upper cover. Complete with what is almost certainly the original plain unlettered dust jacket (we can find no other examples of the jacket, but this is comparable to other jackets for Cuala Press books). Book remarkably bright and clean with only a couple of tiny spots to cloth. A few chips to dust jacket. Housed in vibrant red custom box. An VERY RARE AND NEARLY PERFECT COPY of a book of large cultural importance with dazzlingly fresh illustrations.
