Galloway Landscapes
Poems by William Neill
Woodcuts by Stan Dobbin

Previous Parrot Press 1997

Galloway Landscapes continues the interest this Press has in producing illustrated poetry books. William Neill has lived in Galloway for much of his life while Stan Dobbin and his wife, who come from Galloway, still own a house on the Galloway Coast. Here a poet and a wood cutter convey their knowledge and feelings for an area they strongly relate to.
The poems are set in 14pt Palatino Bold, the sharp character and weight of the letters giving a balence to the woodcuts. Printed on 130gsm Hahnemühle Bütten mould-made paper, page size 6.75 x 9.75 inches, 48pp, printed cover and endpapers.
Printed by offset litho by Charles Smith at the Didcot press and bound by the Fine Bindery.
116 copies, signed by poet and artist.
36 copies, part hand-coloured under the artist`s supervision, in a plain slipcase.
All editions are out of print.
