THE SONG OF ROLAND.

Finely printed in an edition limited to 220 copies. (Blumenthal Printed Book in America, p.65; Warde 71). One of Bruce Rogers' favorite books, and justifiably so--it is a superb example of Rogers' elusive style. The type fonts are a lettre batarde and Civilite types imported from France. The title page is printed in red and black, with a panel design of thistles with the name of the Press displayed on a banner hand painted in blues and yellows. The text is printed in two columns, adorned with illustrations by Rogers patterned after stained glass windows, and hand-colored in the same vein. The initial letter of the text is stamped in gold and surrounds an heraldic eagle with a crown over its head. Page numbers and chapter headings are printed in red, shoulder notes in olive. Minor cover wear.
