Descripción

100 copies, sm.folio, (300x202mm), 49,[3]p. wood-engraved device by Reynolds Stone on the title page. A fine copy on original Japanese pulp-decorated jacketed wrappers. In effect an Album amicorum produced for presentation to Giovanni Mardersteig on the occasion of his 80th birthday. The idea for this book was first mooted by Hans Schmoller and the text was set at the Curwen Press - appropriately enough in Mardersteig's Dante typeface, printed by Will and Sebastien Carter at the Rampant Lions Press and bound at the Cambridge University Press. A simply beautiful book. Please note that the advised postage is based on an average book, if necessary the postage will be reduced to the correct amount and you will be notified by email.
