289. Myers, Robin, Michael Harris and Giles Mandelbrote, eds. MUSIC AND THE BOOK TRADE
FROM THE SIXTEENTH TO THE TWENTIETH CENTURY. New Castle, Delaware and London,
England: Oak Knoll Press and The British Library, 2008, 6 x 9 inches, hardcover with dust jacket. 240
pages. ISBN 9781584562450. $49.95 $37.46
The original contributions contained in this newest addition to the Publishing Pathways series map some of the
common ground between music and other forms of print, exploring the ways in which the organization of
production and the process of publication of printed music have developed over time. From the production and
sale of missals in Renaissance Spain to the complexities of Gustav Mahlers copyrights in late nineteenth-century
Vienna, these essays raise issues and demonstrate methods of approach that will be of wider relevance to many
areas of book history. How composers and publishers worked out their respective financial interests is just one of
the recurring themes which will strike a chord with those who study the business of print. Co-published with The
British Library. [Order No. 96678]
290. Sumner, James. THE MYSTERIOUS MARBLER. New Castle, Delaware: Oak Knoll Press, 2009,
5.5 x 8 inches, hardcover. 132 pages. ISBN 9781584562696. $60.00 $45.00
Limited to 300 copies, reprinted from the scarce Bird & Bull private press edition of 1976. With an historical
introduction, notes on the english marbling tradition, and thirteen original marbled samples by Richard J. Wolfe.
This printing of James Sumner's 1854 marbling manual includes a new preface by Richard J. Wolfe. A further note
on the English marbling tradition and thirteen tipped in original examples of marbled papers by Wolfe have also
been added. The historical introduction, the text of Sumner's pamphlet, and the 1976 endnote appear exactly as
they do in the first reprinting by Bird & Bull Press. Sumner discusses the little-known history of paper marbling
prior to the nineteenth century. Sumner's original pamphlet had no exhibit samples attached. Wolfe added thirteen
samples of marbled paper that were possibly created by Sumner himself, or by John Hargreaves, his associate, for
the 1976 printing. [Order No. 103080]
