Brand New in a Brand New dust jacket (price clipped, else PERFECT) that has been protected by a removable Brodart clear-plastic sleeve since day 1. Housed in the original black cloth-covered slipcase which shows only some very mild shelfwear (like you sometimes find in any new book store). Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO fading. NO chips. NO tears. NO creases. Fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. 1963. First printing of the First U.S. Edition. Lavishly illustrated with 377 title page and other facsimiles. Includes more than 300 full page plates. A landmark presentation on the history of book typography. Informative notes by Kenneth Day. Beautiful wood engravings in red by Reynolds Stone adorn twin title pages as well as front and back panels of the jacket.
