From the introduction: "Since the late forties, when Will Carter began what is best described as a printing practice, most of his working days have been spent in the printshop on the lowest floor of his house at Cambridg…e. From the room where the press stands and from the office next to it, windows look over the garden as it slopes to the River Cam just below Magdalene Bridge. Machining is done at the opposite side of the shop to the tiers of types in their cases. Between are benches, a guillotine and stacked jobs at various stages of completion. The adjoining office is ranged with works of reference, catalogues and files all set about the central desk, its typewriter and wreaths of correspondence. The press motors on and this tall, active craftsman bobs over his machine refining its impression as a new run begins. He talks then with equal compulsion about his letter-cutting on some newly arrived Welsh slate and stage-managing an evening madrigal concert on the river. The telephone rings, an order is doubled, the self-feed whisks more than one sheet of the flimsy stock into the press and fouls it, harsh words, deft corrections, printing resumes, the phone rings, the press runs on unattended. Two features of the Rampant Lions Press emerge." Elegant booklabel of J.F. Fuggles on the front inside board, Near Fine. Newspaper cutting with obituary of Will Carter laid in.
