Sobre este artículo
Cambridge & New York, 1926. (xiii), 205, (19) pp. Full cloth binding designed by Emil Rudolf Weiss who also designed the endpapers. (corners and bottom and top of spine a bit bumped). Edition limited to 1370 copies, this is one of 1250 copies on antique laid.
The Fleuron is considered to be one of the most notable typographic journals of the twentieth century. It achieved an international reputation not only for the quality of its articles but also for the quality of its production. As quoted by Grant Shipcot in 'Typographical Periodicals Between the Wars', the core of contributors to 'The Fleuron' were also "taking the typographical initiative of the time; this was particularly true of Stanley Morison, who as typographical adviser to the Monotype Corporation and later to Cambridge University Press exerted a very great influence." Among the contributors of the present volume we find Julius Rodenberg on Klinspor with lists of books and several tipped in type and page specimens by Koch, Harwerth etc. ; Paul Istel on Laboureur with original engravings and page specimens; Paul Beaujon (Beatrice Warde) on Garamond and Stanley Morison whose article is titled: "Towards an Ideal Italic".

Sobre Knuf Rare Books
Knuf Rare books was founded in the 1950s by Frits Knuf in the Netherlands. After an apprenticeship with Frits I took over the firm in 1996 which we then moved to France in 2001 where we are still based. The business is run from our home in Lavardin, one of the most beautiful villages of France located in the Loire Valley, that can easily be reached from Paris. Visitors are most welcome, but by appointment please. I am interested in the History of the Book and have a good inventory of rare and uncommon printed books, ephemeral items, prints and manuscripts from the incunable period to the twentieth century. My stock is especially strong in early auction- and library catalogues, type specimens, continental printer’s and engravers manuals, calligraphy manuals. Another interest is early continental architecture books and early art auction catalogues. Every year I issue two fully illustrated and annotated printed catalogues that are sent out upon request. In addition to that I also send out short email lists every week with a selection of books about books from our stock. And of course, I exhibit at several major international book fairs, such as New York, Boston and Paris. We work mainly with institutional customers, and are happy to discuss special institutional requirements. I adhere strictly to the professional standards and code of conduct of the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers and the Syndicat national de la Librairie Ancienne et Moderne (SLAM), and the Compagnie Nationale des Experts (CNE) to which I belong. I have been an international rare book dealer for over 25 years and am a member of the Nederlands Genootschap van Bibliofielen. If you want to buy or sell single books or whole collections, have an expert valuation or if would just like some advice, please do not hesitate to contact me.
