Description
Frontis. & illus. 120 pp. 8vo, orig. morocco-backed patterned boards. North Hills: 1981. Limited to 300 copies, printed in Baskerville type on Hahnemühle Ingres-Büttenpapier. John Murray's 1829 critique of current papermaking practices and abuses, although little regarded when first published, seems today "a work of remarkable prescience at a time when the books of the past 150 years are crumbling and there is effort both to conserve those and to preserve the literature and science of our own time."­from the Introductory Essay. Fine copy with prospectus.
