Item description from seller

Octavo, original stiff vellum boards, uncut, number 314 of only 425 copies printed by Fred Anthoensen at The Southworth Press; and signed by the author on the colophon leaf; very fine and in the original, now worn, board slip case. Miss Lone was brought from England by Lathrop Harper as a cataloger; her area of great expertise was incunabula, a field in which Harper excelled, and Miss Lone was the driving intelligence behind the great Harper catalogue of incunabula published in five parts in 1930, and containing over one thousand incunabula. Miss Lone in turn brought her 16 year old nephew, Douglas Parsonage, to work for Harper, where he remained for virtually the remainder of his life. The contents of this handy reference work deal with, inter alia, countries, languages, various types and type fonts, illustrations medicine, science, the arts, components of the book and its make up, etc. First edition.
