London n.p. (printed by C. Whittingham) 1845 small 4to. contemporary full calf, boards ruled with foliat and double fillet roll motifs, rims of boards and turn-ins with gilt roll pattern, all edges gilt, five raised bands, red spine label, gilt-tooled spine panels. (198) pages.
Printed as an Eton prize book for 1845. Sixteen satires of Juvenal, and six by Persius. Printed by Whittingham (whose device follows the text) at Chiswick. This book is a minor footnote in the history of printing, as it was at one time regarded as the first use of Caslon old-face in the 19th century (see Keynes' Pickering bibliography, p.31), though that is no longer the case. Each page is printed within a red border composed of ornaments within a frame of inner and outer single fillets; the title page border differs from that of the other pages. First page is a printed presentation with the name of "Alderson" filled in and the date altered by hand from 1841 to 1850. Bookplate of Livraria de Palha on front pastedown. Front board detatched. Minor foxing confined to first and last leaves.

See More... Krupp, Andrea BOOKCLOTH IN ENGLAND AND AMERICA, 1823-50
New Castle and London Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2008 8vo. stiff paper wrappers 102 pages
This volume offers a new edition of Andrea Krupp's groundbreaking article, which first appeared in the Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America, and includes an expanded Catalogue of Bookcloth Grains, with illustrations in a larger format and, for the first time, in color. Sue Allen has written the preface for the book. Ms. Krupp's three-part essay, with several illustrations, covers the introduction of bookcloth and the early decades of its use, discusses bookcloth grain nomenclature and concludes with detailed observations on several cloth grain patterns. The first of three appendices is an information-dense table that lists each grain pattern with date range and frequency and provides cross references to previous nomenclature. Appendices 2 and 3, which together comprise the Catalogue of Nineteenth-Century Bookcloth Grains, include images of the various grains, reproduced at actual size. In this edition, the number of catalogue entries has been expanded from 222 to 248. The swatches are printed in color, and many of the ribbon-embossed patterns in Appendix 3 are formatted to represent the patterns more completely than when first published. Co-published with the Bibliographical Society of America and The British Library.
Sales rights: Worldwide except in the UK; available in the UK from The British Library.
