AN INFANT'S LIBRARY.

One of 52 sets assembled for the Society's membership only. While 72 copies of the booklets were printed, there were only 52 of the boxes made. The library consists of 31 diminutive children's books printed by member presses. These presses include the Crabgrass Press, Cuckoo Hill Press, Gogmagog Press, Plough Press and the Typographeum. The explanatory text volume by Brian Alderson loosely inserted. This volume lists all the contributors. Loosely inserted is an A.L.s. from Ian Bain meant to accompany this set which was mailed to its American recipient. With a presentation from Bain to the American in the pamphlet that he contributed. Very fine copy of a very interesting production.
