Large folio: 12 by 17 inches. 104pp. Finely printed letterpress by Juan Pascoe with the Washington hand press on Castilla Gvarro paper. One of 100 copies for sale, from a total edition of 135 copies.

Finely bound by the Thorn Bindery in quarter warm brown morocco, double marbled paper boards by Pam Smith in shades of tan and brown, white leather lettering pieces on the spine and upper board tooled in blind, and medium brown Cave handmade paper as pastedowns. The text by Alexandre Stols is taken from the Boletín de la Bibliteca Nacional, 1957. Pp. 45-104 are facsimiles of César's printing, generally examples of his title pages. Pp. 12 through 43 contain detailed explanatory notes of the facsimiles. An impressive work, finely printed and finely bound. Cornelio Adrián César was a Dutch printer, born in Haarlem in 1574. At the age of 8 he was apprenticed to a printing house in Haarlem. Later, he enlisted as an artillery constable and sailed for New Spain. On his arrival he made the acquaintance of Pedro Ocharte's widow and was welcomed into the printing business. After serving a prison sentence imposed by the Holy Inquisition, which declared him a heretic, he found work in other presses and during his long life printed an impressive amount of work of the highest quality and made great contributions to the bibliography of the printing press in the Americas. .

Description
Cleveland, Ohio, 1928. Hardcover. Very Good. Oblong octavo measuring 8" x 5.5". String-tied black leather over stiff paper boards with "photographs of Cleveland" handwritten on the front board. Contains 138 sepia-toned or black and white gelatin silver photographs measuring between 2" x 3" and 3.5" x 6" with some captions. Very good album with rubbing and edgewear with near fine photographs. A photo album kept by a primary school teacher in Cleveland, Ohio beginning in 1928. The photos are compiled by a young woman and show her with her friends outside of the school as well as events with her class. The album begins with a photo captioned "The Gang!" and shows the woman and her friends all posed together on a roof top. This is followed by a photo captioned "the male quartet and the Ford" and shows a group of young men hanging out of their new ford. Her "beginner sewing class" is photographed here and a group that was performing "Children of Old Glory" in 1929. She taught cooking and sewing classes and is seen here teaching and posed for class portraits. The classes are seen around a school house, on a picnic, and playing out of doors. Also included is an envelope with loose photographs and negatives from around the same time with one photo of a nurse from 1943. An interesting collection of photographs detailing a young woman's teaching career and time with her friends in Ohio in the late 1920s and early 1930s.
