Bookseller Notes

'...several blocks cut 40 - or even nearly 70 - years ago have been printed here in colour for the first time. The images thus revived have a freshness and cross-stimulation from his work in other media that exemplify the assertion of a visual wit - a nudge towards the lively and away from the complacent - that lay at the core of his teaching ('turn the second block sideways and print in yellow'). (John Randle, Introduction)
