Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. Published by Bluett & Sons Ltd. in 1973, this elegantly produced catalogue presents select Chinese and Japanese ceramics from the distinguished collection of Sir Harry and Lady Garner, one of the most respected assemblages of East Asian art in 20th-century Britain.…The catalogue highlights twenty-four representative pieces, many of which had been on long-term loan to the Leicester Museum and Art Gallery. The prefatory remarks emphasize both the depth of the Garners' collecting activity and Sir Harry Garner's intellectual authority in the field of Chinese art, particularly ceramics and lacquer, where his scholarship helped shape modern understanding. This edition features high-quality black-and-white photographic plates documenting each object with clarity suited to scholarly and collecting purposes. As a bookseller's catalogue produced contemporaneously with the sale of the collection, it offers valuable period documentation and viewpoints on provenance, connoisseurship, and the British art market in the early 1970s. Bluett & Sons, one of London's most respected Asian-art dealers, produced these catalogues in limited numbers for clients, institutions, and researchers; examples tend to survive only in small quantities. Condition: Near Fine. The wrappers are exceptionally well preserved, showing only faint rubbing to the rear panel and light shelfwear at extremities. The text block is clean, crisp, and unmarked, with no ownership inscriptions. The binding remains tight and square. Internally fresh throughout, with plates bright and unmarred. A superior example of this fragile softcover issue, seldom encountered in such condition on the market. Edition/Printing: First and only edition, 1973, as issued. No subsequent printings or revised editions were produced. Colophon: Bluett & Sons Ltd., May 1973. Printed in the UK.
