2007. GOLDYNE, Joseph. The Invisible Collection. By Stefan Zweig. Illustrated with an original etching by Joseph Goldyne. 8vo, 230 x 140 mm., bound in original black morocco-backed sepia-coloured paper over boards. New York: Ursus Books, 2007. A handsome new edition of this classic fable about collecting. Zweig's story, set in Germany in the aftermath of the First World War, is timeless. It eloquently evokes the magic of collecting, the excitement of dealing and the pleasures and complexities of ownership. Joseph Goldyne, the distinguished California artist who is himself a renowned collector, has thoughtfully produced an illustration which successfully solves the problem of how to illustrate a book, which on first reading would seem to defy the concept of illustration. Peter Koch has designed and printed as elegant a version of Zweig's story as one could hope for. One of an edition of only 50 copies elegantly printed by Peter Koch in San Francisco, and containing a signed etching by Joseph Goldyne. The colophon is signed by both Peter Koch and Joseph Goldyne. As new. Bringhurst, Robert. JOSEPH GOLDYNE: Catalogue Raisonné of Books, Portfolios, and Calligraphic Sheets, 008.
