Sobre este artículo
[Cambridge]: Rampant Lions Press, [1993].. Large quarto (32.5 x 25.5 cm). Cloth and marbled paper over boards, gilt spine label. Board slipcase. About fine. First edition. One of 200 regular copies, from a total edition of 211. A gathering of specimens of the proposed designs for eleven titles that did not come to fruition, accompanied by explanations by Carter, including works by Rimbaud, Malcolm Lowry, Bierce, Aesop, Dante, Shakespeare, Sidney, Carroll, etc. "The potential demonstrated and the fecundity of ideas in this book makes it an important statement of the state of fine printing, and a hopeful indicator of where the private press book may be going" - Alastair Johnson.
