Fifth and best edition. What had started as a one volume guide for book collectors in 1877 grew to this massive set. Each volume covers a different area of interest to the collector including the history of printing, collecting, binding, papermaking, book illustration, the enemies of books and a bibliographical manual. The book is heavily illustrated and even contains tipped-in specimens of marbled paper, decorated paper and other types of art paper. Spines slightly age darkened. Bookplate.
