Printed in an edition limited to 825 copies, this being one of 740 bound in stiff paper wrappers. Matrix is the longest surviving and probably the last typographical journal to be printed on letterpress. It is an eclectic mix of fine printing, type design, and small press lore, forming a record of events and personalities whose memory would otherwise have died with their recorders. It is no exaggeration to say that in the future it will be impossible to research fine printing without reference to Matrix. This rich and varied issue of Matrix contains twenty-two articles and additional book reviews, including: "New York Revisited" by Kenneth Auchincloss, "A Decade in the Writing, the Biography of Robert Gibbings" by Martin Andrews, "The Birth of a Book, Ravilious at War" by Simon Lawrence and Anne Ullmann, "Tiern, Creating a New Type" by Nicholas Parry, "The Woodcut Novels of Lynd Ward" by David A. Berona, "Ernest A. Lindner" by Nicolas Barker, "Looking for Cockerel Eggs" by Roderick Cave, "The Incunabula of the Rampant Lions Press" by Sebastian Carter, "Indian Toys" by Graham Moss and Kathy Whalen, "Henry Moore, Books and Friendship" by Alan Wilkinson, and "Gudrun Zapf von Hesse" by John Dreyfus, his last contribution to Matrix. Illustrated throughout with many tipped-in specimens on special paper, engravings, photographs. color plates, etc. and a 1930s pencil portrait of Robert Gibbings, by Harry Hicken, as frontispiece. A fine copy.
