Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, n.d. (c. 1980)
16.2 x 22.9cm, printed envelope content of a selection of two artist's books (Woods and Seas, Two Billows) and four artist's cards (Snowbark, Birch-Bark, Cytheria and ARBRE (TREE))- while thematically about "woods and seas" as per the title the selection seems a little random and possibly simply filled with items from the Press that Finlay had many copies of (Two Billows was also bound into another publication about artist's books so one guesses over a 1,000 would have been needed to fulfil all those publications and to be a stand alone book which is almost three times Finlay's most common print run of 350). These items are all described elsewhere on this site so this entry is for completeness really. All VG+ in like envelope.
