Castle Hill Press special issues

Following a long-established tradition among private-press publishers, we issue a small number of special copies of each of our titles. These often contain extra content, such as a section of facsimiles or an additional pamphlet. They are bound by leading craft binderies.

Since 2000, we have produced both full-goatskin and quarter-goatskin specials. Letters series volumes in the full-goatskin are bound differently, while the quarter-goatskin spines are a uniform red-brown colour.

We also intend to produce a small number of copies of each title bound to a design specially commissioned from a leading contemporary craftsman. These copies will build into an interesting collection of binding designs at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

The links below lead to illustrated specifications of all the Castle Hill Press specials issued so far.

Customer feedback

Some comments from the customer feedback page on our old website:

. . . I couldn't be more pleased. The attention to detail, and conception of this edition, are wonderful . . .

I cannot praise too highly the quality of the production, with exceptional clarity and beauty of print, the erudition of editing, and the excellent on-line service. Important correspondence in beautiful books - the perfect combination.

. . .Excellence in research and editing, and magnificently produced books in superb bindings. Last but not least, efficient and friendly service, with books posted in rock solid packaging.  

. . . These books are a pleasure to own and read . . .

. . . a quite invaluable job in publishing (very beautifully . . .) many of the writings of TEL which hitherto have been available only in manuscript form in museums, libraries or private collections, or in out-of-print books which are very hard to obtain.

An excellent set of publications that are beautifully edited and produced. A wonderful addition to my library and to any library.
