THE PRIVATE PRESS.
by Cave, Roderick

First edition. Traces the development of the private press over the last 500 years. 83 figures in the text and 72 plates. Better printed than the second edition and thus still desirable. Presentation on half-title "inscribed at San Francisco, for David Belch, 13 March '83, Roderick Cave." Loosely inserted is a notice that Cave was presenting a talk in San Francisco entitled "The Private Press Revisited: Mediations While Preparing a Revision of The Private Press."
