Ordinary limited editions of between 715 and 880 copies. 20 volumes, stiff covers in dustjackets, 4to, between 166 and 245 pp per issue, mounted specimen leaves, inserts, plates, illustrations, many colour, some folding. An excellent run of 20 annual issues of Matrix, the highly literate and gloriously produced chronicle of fine printing, private press work and the book arts. Anyone interested in the work or writings of such names as Robert Gibbings, Eric Gill, John Buckland-Wright, Jan Tschichold, Stanley Morison, Brooke Crutchley, Harry Carter, Roderick Cave or a host of others will find much to fascinate here. Each issue is not only a thoroughly enjoyable read but also a visual and tactile delight with numerous tipped-in specimen papers, pieces of fine printing, etc - Matrix really cannot be too highly recommended. Fine set.
