Before you leave for Toronto, if you have been thinking about ordering The Book Cover Art of Thomas Watson Ball for your library, Saturday, March 31 is the last day of the current pre-publication pricing.  On Sunday April 1 the price will increase.



1900

Thomas Watson Ball (1863-1934) was relatively unknown until recently, but is emerging from obscurity as not only one of the major book cover designers at the turn of the 20th century, but a significant art director, type designer (the familiar Colgate font that was used on their products for many decades), muralist, and marine painter of the American Impressionist school.

This exhibition catalog reproduces in color more than 70 cover designs attributable to Ball, and raises many questions about previously unattributed works that, due to the wide variety of his graphic and lettering styles, will provide researchers with a lot of work for decades to come.  This exhibition is not intended to be definitive, but provides scholars, curators and collectors with enough visual reference material that they may find many previously unattributed TWB book covers in their collections.
