Sobre The Typographeum Bookshop
The Typographeum Bookshop was founded in 1976 and offers a small stock of books with a special emphasis on British and European literature, as well as fine foreign films. In addition, I was a private press printer who published a variety of books using the technique of letterpress developed by Gutenberg in the 15th Century. Please visit my website, https://typographeum.us, for much more information, as well as pictures of my shop, both inside and out.
