About this Item

Two very good Type Face catalogues from C.& E. Layton Typesetters and Printers, of Faringdon Street, London. Undated but appear to be from early 1950s, No Dust Jackets (as issued). Covers: both buff coloured stiff paper, the supplement is marbled but the Synopsis is plain; the Synopsis has a line drawing of Standard House to front whereas the Supplement has a company crest; both have black lettering to front and plain rear; Supplement has additional blue lettering to front; both are very clean and bright for their age; slight rubbing and bumping to all edges on both and 2 cm tear to top front of Synopsis but all present; small neat signature of previous owner to top front of Synopsis; both in remarkable condition for large format booklets of this age. Internally: very clean and tightly staple bound; some rusting to staples; overall very good. Unpaginated,
