See More... Baker, Nicholson DOUBLE FOLD, LIBRARIES AND THE ASSAULT ON PAPER.
New York Random House (2001) small 8vo. paper-covered boards, dust jacket xii, 370, (2) pages
Since the 1950's our countriy's libraries have followed a policy of "destroying to preserve," and have methodically dismantled their collections of original bound newspapers and replaced them with microfilmed copies that lack all the color and quality of the original paper and illustrations. The players include the Library of Congress, the CIA, NASA, microfilm lobbyists, and a colorful array of librarians and digital futurists. In this passionately argued book, the author pleads the case for saving our books and newspapers and tells the story of how and why our greatest research libraries have betrayed the public trust by selling off or pulping irreplacable collections.

See More... Ray, Gordon N THE ART DECO BOOK IN FRANCE.
Edited by Tanselle, G. Thomas. Printed by Heritage Letterpress of Charlotte, North Carolina. Charlottesville, VA Bibliographical Society of the University of Virginia 2005 6" x 9" cloth 159 pages
When Gordon Ray delivered the Lyell Lectures at Oxford in 1985, he chose as his subject the Art Deco book illustrations and bindings produced in France in the 1920s. This topic was not a surprising choice, for he had previously written magisterial annotated catalogues, largely based on his own collection, of British illustrated books from 1790 to 1914 and of French illustrated books from 1700 to 1914. His Lyell Lectures formed a natural continuation of the latter and gave him the opportunity to express his views on still another area in which, through his collecting and research, he had become expert. He accompanied his lectures with 183 slides, the majority of them in color, and those illustrations are in fact the reason that the lectures have not been published until now: the expense of producing so many illustrations was too daunting for the publishers that Ray approached.
Today a happy solution to this problem is available in the form of digital presentation on the internet, and Ray's work is now being offered in a combination of printed and electronic forms. The verbal text of his lectures is letterpress printed in this present volume (supplemented by eight plates, showing striking examples of the work of the major figures discussed), and all of the available illustrations are being published on the website of the Bibliographical Society of the University of Virginia, at <http://etext.virginia.edu/bsuva/artdeco>.

Peterson, author of A Bibliography of the Kelmscott Press (1984) and other books. A few of these 41 articles were reprinted in In the Day's Work (1924) and Some Aspects of Printing Old and New (1941), but most remained unpublished or buried in obscure periodicals and pamphlets until assembled by the editor. D.B. Updike (1860-1941), founder of the Merrymount Press in Boston, was one of the most influential printers and book designers of the twentieth century, as well as a skilled writer who expressed his views with exceptional clarity and wit. Thirty-one full-page illustrations, many in two colors. Printed on Cougar Opaque Natural paper in an exact digital replica of Caslon Old Face, the type most often associated with Updike, as well as margins and spacing between words and lines that are approximately what he himself used. This copy is signed by the editor / designer on the colophon page.
