First edition, limited to 220 numbered copies, and printed on paper made by hand by Henry Morris (Taylor A17). This interesting book contains a essay by Morris on his discovery of a number of books printed on French paper made from assignats, those pieces of currency used in France during the French Revolution. Includes a number of illustrations and two actual specimens of this currency inserted in a pocket opposite page 29. Schlosser writes on "Some Early Milanese Paper Wrappers," i.e. ream wrappers, with reproductions of a number of them.
