In this period, Gustave Baumann and Willard Clark, both of Santa Fe, were probably the first two in the state to bring the work of the private press into an artistic context, [Pam Smith] said. Baumann and Clark created memorable wood-cut images of regional subjects. The exhibit also covers still-active private presses in New Mexico. Among them, Smith said, are Weaselsleeves Press in Santa Fe and Desert Rose Press in San Jose. This is Willard Clark's illustrated cover for the sheet music of \"Mariachi de Santa Fe,\" subtitled \"The Song of the Santa Fe Fiesta.\" The cover, made at Clark's Studio in Santa Fe in the late 1930s, is in the exhibit \"Lasting Impressions.\"; Photo: COURTESY KEVIN RYAN; Color; Color

According to [Erna Fergusson], Menaul continued to stir up dissension and she said, \"What Rev. [Samuel Gorman] had left undone, [John Menaul] finished off.\" Further, Menaul was less strident in attacking surviving elements of Native culture. Yet, a statement made by one of the Marmon cousins upon the minister's departure in 1887 was likely an exaggeration. He wrote that \"John Menaul left here, loved and respected by all.\" It is worth mentioning that the Menaul name today remains familiar to residents of Albuquerque because of Menaul School on Menaul Boulevard. The school, dating from 1896, took that name from its founder, the Rev. James Menaul, younger brother of John Menaul.

Chronologically, Lasting Impressions divides into five sections. The 19th Century deals with Padre Antonio Jose Martnez, who purchased the first press brought to New Mexico over the Santa Fe Trail from Missouri in 1834, and John Menaul, who ran the Laguna Mission Press from 1877 to 1889. Between the Wars showcases the presses and productions of authors and artists from World War I through World War II, including Walter Goodwin's Rydal Press, Maurice and Marceil Taylor's Seton Village Press, and the Press of Gustave Baumann, the noted German-born artist famed for his woodcut depictions of northern New Mexico scenes, churches, and ceremonies. Still, we're not just talking words on a page here. Many of New Mexico's private presses were devoted to visual art output as well as literature, as the exhibit makes clear. Consider Baumann's 1939 Frijoles Canyon Pictographs, published by Writers' Editions Inc., a Santa Fe co-operative whose founders included author and bon vivant Witter Bynner and poet Peggy Pond Church. Baumann cut and printed the book's 26 wood blocks, but the text was printed by another woodcut artist, Willard Clark, and the book was bound by [Hazel Dreis], who came from a printing family and set up New Mexico's first fine bindery in 1939. Only 480 copies were produced, with 300 for sale and the other 180 set aside for the collaborators, their friends, and collectors. The American Institute of Graphic Arts cited Pictographs as one of the best books of 1941. (Note the several years it clearly took to plan, set, print, bind, and distribute the book: small presses are usually deliberate in their time frames.) The state's two earliest presses were dedicated to religious and educational purposes over beauty. Martnez printed school primers, religious tracts, and his own political and autobiographical works, and Menaul used his press to further his missionary activities.\"Padre Martnez is one of the pivotal figures in New Mexican 19th-century history,\" said New Mexico state historian Estevan Rael-G lvez. \"He played an enormous part in creating New Mexico's educational institutions. He imported the first press, printed the first newspaper, El Crepsculo de la Libertad (The Dawn of Liberty), and our very first books.\" But Willa Cather did the padre a disservice in her 1927 Death Comes for the Archbishop, [Thomas Leech] said. \"Willa Cather needed a villain for her story,\" so the author took the facts of a political rivalry between Martnez and Archbishop Jean Baptiste Lamy and turned them into a private feud.

His first wicket was the big one of Freddie Klokker, who played against Ireland at senior level in the Emerging Nations Tournament in Zimbabwe in April. That was in his second over, and [Jordan McGonigle] struck again in his sixth and the Donemana slow left armerfinished his 10- over spell with a wicket maiden and a double wicket-maiden to leave the Danes in disarray at 103 for seven. On the day that Junior McBrine took a six-for for Donemana, his mentor would have been proud of him.
