Cole, Alphaeus P. et al. Timothy Cole: Wood-Engraver.
New York: The Pioneer Associates, 1935. First edition, signed by Alphaeus and Margaret Cole on the dedication page, limitation #616 of 750 copies. 8vo; 172 pp. Blue boards, slightly sunned spine with wear at extremities, illustrated with 20 wood-engraved plates. Designed by D.B. Updike. Very good +.
Cole once stated, "the engraving is nothing, absolutely nothing… It is the reproduction of the original alone that concerns me… [The engraver] must not speak his own words, nor do his own works, nor think his own thoughts, but must be the organ through which the mind of the artist speaks.”
