An important catalogue printed by D.B. Updike. Many comments on the technical processes of printing. Second publication of the Society. Front wrapper detached yet present, chipping along edges with minor loss. Also included is a lovely T.L.s. by William Dana Orcutt, the famed author and book collector, in which he writes to Paul A. Bennett explaing that "Henry Lewis Johnson secured most of the material, I wrote most of the text, and Updike planned the book physically and printed it."
