8vo (24 cm), XXV, 127 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dj clipped and slightly frayed at extremities). First edition of this comprehensive catalogue of the work of Bruce Rogers (1870-1957), one of the most influential American typographers and book designers of the twentieth century. Organized chronologically, it records his books and pamphlets, studies and drawings, bookplates and labels, and sketches in oil and watercolour, with each item systematically described and classified. The catalogue is illustrated with a collotype facsimile of preliminary studies for a book, additional studies reproduced in halftone, and numerous photographic illustrations, including portraits of Rogers and photographs made by him. Includes an introduction by D. B. Updike, a letter from John T. McCutcheon, and an address by Rogers himself, providing valuable contemporary perspectives on his career and artistic philosophy. An important reference for the study of American book design and typography, and a useful record of Rogers's work at the height of his international reputation.…
