Piero Heliczer: The Dead Language Press (1957-71)
In 2014 Boo-Hooray, the New York-based gallery and archive, hosted an exhibition on Piero Heliczer and The Dead Language Press – the latter a classic example of the small press / little magazine network that flourished in North America and around the world in the 1950s and 60s. As Boo-Hooray records, "Heliczer would print using busted-up type, incomplete alphabets, and lie-beg-borrow-steal paperstock for these masterpieces of stealth letterpress." See here for details.
Maclise, Angus. Year. NY: Dead Language Press, 1961.
An early book from Piero Heliczer's Dead Language Press, and my favorite book by Maclise - a shamanic ordering of days which became an important organizational structure for Maclise and other members of the Theatre of Eternal Music.
From new arrivals at Division Leap. More information here. According to Maclise, catalogued on The Day of the High Road.
