The Buckland Wright material consists of both metal and wood-engraved prints, illustrated ephemera such as exhibition announcements and Christmas cards, ten engraved wood blocks, and correspondence with Joseph Ishill. Buckland Wright supplied engravings for various publications of the Oriole Press and sent Ishill many examples of his work. The Rare Book Collection has numerous books with Buckland Wright's illustrations published by the Golden Cockerel Press, the Halcyon Press, and by Buckland Wright himself. The Department of Special Collections is pleased to make this collection available with the kind permission of Christopher Buckland Wright.
