Sobre este artículo
The Printing House of Leo Hart, Rochester, first edition, 1933. Cloth over bevelled boards, gilt spine-title, 8vo,. xi, 142 pp. From the blurb to a later reprint: "Everyone interested in books, whatever his particular point of contact may be, finds in Bibliotheca Typographica a handy guide to reference material. Taken as a whole, it supplies a general understanding of books in all their phases, from materials and processes of manufacture to collecting and bibliography. In detail, each subject is covered by a representative selection of books which provide both specific information and indications of where to search for further data. It is interesting and informative, pleasant and profitable, useful and usable." Compiled while Hart was still a Harvard undergraduate, this volume has remained one of the essential guides to anyone forming a collection of books about books. Good in a torn and heavily smokestained dustwrapper.

Sobre Wykeham Books
We specialize chiefly in "books about books", the emphasis being on historical aspects of book collecting, production and distribution. A particular speciality is in bibliographies, of all subjects of interest to collectors, dealers and scholars, with several thousand bibliography titles in stock. Other strengths include extensive holdings of auction catalogues for book sales and a good selction of reference material on and facsimiles of illuminated manuscripts. We also have a special interest in rare material by or about Rudyard Kipling.
