See More... (Rogers, Bruce) THE HISTORY OF OLIVER AND ARTHUR.
(Boston Houghton, Mifflin and Company 1903) small 4to. quarter linen with linen corners, dark green textured paper sides, paper spine label. (xvi), cviii, (iv) pages.
Limited to 330 numbered copies printed at the Riverside Press, Cambridge. (Warde 39; Work of Bruce Rogers 95; Blumenthal p.17). This book is an excellent example of Bruce Rogers' allusive style (where he designed the book in a style appropriate to the period in which it was written.) In this case, Rogers has chosen to illustrate the book with woodcuts, evocative of the period, placed in the text. The book is printed in two columns with the Priory Text font. This is one of three books Rogers did in black-letter for the Riverside Press. Chapter headings, major initial letters, and page numbers are printed in red.The title page is printed with red swash lettering and a woodcut in black. The colophon is also printed in red with Bruce Rogers' initials and a classic thistle design. This is the first English translation of the tale originally written in French in 1511. The tale is of interest in its own right, and doubly so because it apparently is based on the same tale as William Morris' The Friendship of Amis and Amile. Extra spine label tipped in. Lacks slipcase. Spine label age darkened. Some wear at tips.

See More... (Rogers, Bruce) THE HOLY BIBLE CONTAINING THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL TOUNGUES AND WITH THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED.
Cleveland and New York The World Publishing Co. 1949 large folio full red cloth, title gilt-stamped on spine, gilt decorations on boards; top edge gilt. xxii, (2), 942+(1) pages.
One of 950 copies printed. King James version with dedication to the King and introduction by the translators. The finest lectern Bible ever printed in America. Rogers worked on this book for four years. It was set in a Goudy type that was heavily modified by Bruce Rogers for this book. The typeface did not space to BR and Abraham Colish's standards so the original monotype composition was almost entirely releaded by hand. Paper for the Bible was specially commissioned for the book. This landmark in book design is becoming increasingly difficult to find. With 8 page prospectus loosely inserted. Boards and spine soiled and rubbed at edges. Names of previous owners inscribed on front pastedown. Hinges cracked. Free endpapers, title page and introductory pages torn or bent at lower corners. Shaken.
