A PAIR ON PAPER, TWO ESSAYS ON PAPER HISTORY AND RELATED ...
by Schlosser, Leonard B.
First edition, limited to 220 numbered copies, and printed on paper made by hand by Henry Morris. This interesting book contains a essay by Morris on his discovery of a number of books printed on French paper made from assignats, those pieces of currency used in France during the French Revolution. Includes a number of illustrations and two actual specimens of this currency inserted in a pocket opposite page 29. Schlosser writes on "Some Early Milanese Paper Wrappers," i.e. ream wrappers, with reproductions of a number of them. Small spot on front cover.
