Description
  Folio (16 ¾ x 12 ¾ inches). Gray cloth over orange printed paper boards with black lettering and decoration to top cover. Light wear to tissue guards and boards with 1 ½” smudge to lower bottom board; all ties present. As issued, ten loose original color lithographs, each with tissue guard containing text in Spanish and English, from the Popol-Vuh. In addition to the title and justification pages, two pages, one in English and one in Spanish, tell the story of the Popol-Vuh. Written in the mid-16th century, the Popol-Vuh is an account of the gods, the creation of the universe, and the mythological history of the Maya Quiche civilization. Number 831 of 1,000 copies, signed by Merida, who was born in Guatemala in 1891 and died in Mexico in 1984. He studied in Europe, was heavily influenced by Cubism and worked with important artists in Mexico including Diego Rivera. While achieving international success, Merida never forgot his Mayan ancestry, which led him to the present work. Scarce.

Description
72 plates (many in fine color). Folio, orig. blue cloth, upper cover & spine gilt, t.e.g., others uncut. Cambridge: at the University Press, 1929. Limited to 230 copies. This volume contains 72 reproductions of binding now, with one exception, in the possession of the University Library, the Fitzwilliam Museum, and the College libraries. Each plate is accompanied by descriptive text giving particulars of the date, provenance, binders, stamps, etc. The bindings range from a Romanesque example dating c. 1190 to the middle of the 18th century and include many notable continental pieces. “Hobson’s method was to make lists of bindings which had the same tools in common; if the binder of one or several was known, he could attribute the others to him; if the workshop was not known, he baptized it with a sobriquet, such as ‘Queen’s Binder’; all this required an immense amount of historical and archival research, the examination of the holdings of permanent libraries and private collections, and of the illustrations in books on bindings and auction and booksellers’ catalogues.”–Breslauer, The Uses of Bookbinding Literature, p. 28. Very good copy from the library of Robert S. Pirie.
