About this Item

One of 475 (500) copies designed by Bruce Rogers and printed in Italian Old Style on BR wove paper with occasional use of type ornaments for decoration. Quarter scarlet buckram with printed spine label, mustard paper-covered boards. A very good to fine copy. `Sturge Moore's Roderigo of Bivar is another endeavour to convey the character of the text by choosing an antique type. Setting it in an antique manner, all lines flush at the left, with liberal use of capitals and a few appropriate type ornaments, gave to it something of a Spanish flavor, which the red and yellow of the covers accentuated'. (Bruce Rogers).
