Sobre este artículo
[Northampton, MA: The Gehenna Press, 1967].. [31]pp. Small folio (29.5 x 21 cm). Quarter vellum and marbled boards, edges untrimmed. Printed in black and colors. Slight natural mottling to the vellum, otherwise about fine. First edition, regular issue, of this handsome presentation of many of Bruce Rogers' printer's ornaments then recently acquired for the Printing Office in the Yale University Library. The entire edition consisted of 250 copies printed by Harold McGrath on French handmade paper in Rogers' Centaur type. Fifty copies, numbered in Roman, were bound by Arno Warner in full leather, and 200 numbered ordinary copies, bound as here. Rather than being numbered, this is designated as copy 'x' and is inscribed by the Baskins on the colophon: "Jill & Dick love Lisa & Leonard 1967." It is the previous owner's recollection that Dick Warren, presssman in the early days of the Gehenna Press, was the recipient of the inscription. BASKIN 51.
