The
Books of Jonah Even people who don't know the all the details are familiar with Jonah and the Whale, which is one of the most illustrated stories from the Old Testament. David Blamires wrote the essay on this theme to accompany the 2009 summer exhibition at Chetham's Library, Manchester. Our title page incorporates an engraving of the Jonah story as illustrated in the 1674 edition of the Holy Bible printed in Cambridge by John Hayes. The eight other illustrations include a reproduction of a 1557 woodcut, a cut from a Curious Hieroglyphic Bible, 1812, two illustrations from David Jones's 1926 Golden Cockerel Book of Jonah, a wood engraving printed from the original block used in the Gwas Gregynog Llyfr Ionas kindly loaned to us by Colin See-Paynton, and an illustration from the Manga Bible published in 2007. An Alphabet for Jonah, a small rhyming chapbook written by the author, is included with every copy. The edition is of 200 numbered copies, 22 pages, 10 3/4 x 7 3/4 inches, printed on Zerkall paper in Monotype Series 2 with Monotype Caslon for the titling and Rosart on the title-page. It has been bound in a stiff paper wrapper covered with an Enid Marx patterned paper originally printed for Curwen Press, but here the overs from Matrix 7 purchased at a Whittington Press Open Day (Click on the image for a close up of the binding). |
