Natura. With a wood engraving by Peter Reddick

Iowa City: Windhover Press, 1978. Edition limited to 450 copies, this one of 225 copies printed for the Windhover Press, 12mo, pp. [16]; wood engraving by Peter Reddick; fine copy in original green cloth-backed paper-covered boards. From the library of Kim Merker. Berger, Printing and the Mind of Merker, 71: "I printed this for the Gruffyground Press and the Windhover Press. It was issued in two different bindings. I had the Windhover copies hardbound, while Gruffyground issued its copies in wrappers. Little fragments of dirt in the Japanese paper punched holes in the wood engraving, which I printed from the block. Anthony Baker, the proprietor of the Gruffyground Press, thought I had ruined the block on purpose. Acrimonious correspondence followed, and I have never spoke to the man since." Item #6053
