The Printing of Books

The 1938 first edition, in brown cloth boards with a black cloth spine and gold lettering. The rare "somewhat interesting" ex library copy, this is from the library of the Training Department" of publisher R.R. Donnelly & Sons, home of the Lakeside Press. Edition is confirmed from the card, showing it checked out several times between 1939 and 1963. Cloth at spine is splitting a bit, and is a touch frayed at the top, but the binding is sound and the interior is clean and unmarked. Includes many B&W illustrations of book covers and interiors.
