New York Garland Publishing, Inc. 1974 thick tall 8vo. cloth. (viii), viii, 666, 11, 16 pages.
Reprint of the 1782 first edition. (Bigmore & Wyman II,74). Written by his partner and successor, John Nichols, this is a collection of anecdotes pertaining to the life and times of Bowyer, regarded as one of England's most learned 18th-century printers. Nichols was also an antiquarian who published many articles on topics relating to history, and this often-plagiarized volume is an important anecdotal record of its time, with many accounts of contemporary authors, printers and typefounders. Page 535 lists all printing-houses "in and about the Cities of London and Westminster," and includes printers' names, the newspapers they printed, and their location.

Both inserted in a cloth-covered clamshell box. xxiii, 216 pages.
First edition. One of 44 special signed and numbered copies. Will H. Bradley (1868-1962) is widely regarded as one of the masters of design during the Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts periods. His typographic and illustrative work pushed the boundaries of these fields into new directions. In addition, his re-introduction and use of Caslon type brought it back into popularity. The guide includes 261 illustrations, including his designer's marks to help identify his pieces. The guide includes a Book Work section containing three parts: one of 81 definite books of Bradley's own execution, one listing those exhibiting the Bradley stamp but with no confirming documentation, and one listing those using his designs but were probably not produced by him. The remaining sections document magazine covers, advertisements, illustrations, posters, and other works.

See More... (Bullen, Henry Lewis) Collection of approximately 100 blocks used to produce illustrations for the Inland Printer.
Chicago N.P. circa 1918-1924 Various sizes
A collection of about 100 blocks, mostly copper, used to illustrate articles in the Inland Printer between 1918 and 1924 (Union List 3, 1991). Most illustrated articles by Henry Lewis Bullen (1857-1938), who became associated with the American Type Founders Company of Jersey City in 1892. Bullen became the librarian of the company's Typographic Library and Museum. Bullen's main contributions to the periodical were published in the "Collectanea Typographica," a series of short comments on literary and historical aspects of printing. See James Eckman, The Collectanea Typographica of Henry Lewis Bullen 1857-1938 in The Inland Printer 1918-1024, 1926 and 1928-1931 (Rochester, MN: The Doomsday Press, 1961). Bullen's career waned with the bankruptcy of ATF in the 1930s, and much of the library and museum's collections were acquired by Columbia University by 1941, after the library had offered duplicates in its collections for sale in 1936, issuing a catalogue to do so. See David Walker Mallison, Henry Lewis Bullen and the Typographic Library and Museum of the American Type Founders Company (Ph.D. dissertation, Columbia University, 1976).

The text and illustrations captions of the Inland Printer often often included descriptive information about the original illustration, mainly when, where and for what purpose it was created. They include, among many others, are reproductions of illustrations of Sally Franklin, the Albany Type Foundry, Sigismund Feyrabendt, Pierre and Firmin Didot, Edward Cave, David Bruce Jr., Claude Garamond, printer marks of Geofroy Tory, Christopher Plantin and the Pilgrim Printers (of Plymouth Colony).

Provo Friends of the Brigham Young University Library 1995 small 4to. cloth, paper spine label. lxxxiv, 242, (4) pages.
First edition, limited to 750 copies. The first true Renaissance printer, Colines worked with the finest French book decorators and type designers to transform the French book. By using the format pioneered by Aldus Manutius, his press (1520-1546) published reasonably priced "pocket" classics, making them affordable by students and popularizing italic and cursive types in France. De Colines holds the distinction of having prepared the first critical text of the Greek New Testament, and the first printed in France. He produced the earliest accented Greek type in France, fifteen years prior to the Grecs du Roi. In 1528, de Colines introduced an elegant cursive, derived from Arrighi, followed by a smaller italic based on the Aldine. The 230 books described in this work, one-third of de Colines's actual production, illustrate de Colines's types, ornamental initials, printer devices and title borders. A catalogue of the books published and facsimiles of two of Colines's publisher catalogues are also included. Designed by W. Thomas Taylor. Illustrated.
