The Wonders Of Wilmington Depicted By Heath Robinson. 1925. (Later Snowcem)

Descripción

Limited Edition Company promotional Oblong Folio booklet with 5 oblong folio plates of "Heath Robinson" crazy machine illustrations/cartoons by William Heath Robinson single sided only. Produced by the Portland Cement Manufacturers G & T Earle (1925) Ltd. Under the "Pelican" brand and printed by F. Stannard, London. Heath Robinson apparently visited the works before he did the cartoons here. The book has been handled and the illustrated paper boards show handling and the slim cloth spine has cracks with some loss, the cracks do not affect the firmness or have they shown the innards of the spine, just the surface, the contents slightly handled at outer edge. RARE and was obviously produced in LOW numbers for customers and staff of the company, perhaps only the management? They had the well-known English Co trade name "SNOWCEM" which closed down in 1969 and the site demolished. Oblong folio. 1925. NOTE* No other copy located at this time of listing. Only a single institutional library in Sheffield holds a copy on Copac listings. N° de ref. del artículo 7025
