Original linocut blocks by Cox, after his blind drawings, for the book Blind Drawings: examples of an exercise investigating the objective/subjective principle of graphic art, published in 1978

In his bibliographical entry for Blind Drawings (Chambers, Franklin & Tucker 30) Colin Franklin notes: "As to reproduction, (Cox) followed a curious method, used once before in the endpapers to The Lost Fisherman. To print from mechanical line-block was not in sympathy with the Gogmagog Press; to deviate from spontaneous blind drawing could not accord with the book's demonstration. He chose to cut them all on lino, keeping close to every oddity of the originals: 'Here follow facsimiles of actual blind drawings made over varying periods of time. No reproductive process can match the original exactly, but since these plates are printed from transferred hand-engraved intaglios, they have the advantage of being original autographic prints carried out by the artist.'. The linocuts are in fine condition and are preserved in cloth over board folding box with morocco lettering pieces. 28 linocut blocks in varying sizes, most approximate 8 x 7 1/2 to 7 3/4 x 10 1/4 inches.
