Original printed wrappers (12.75 x 9.5 inches), [7] leaves printed rectos only. An attractive specimen of two display typefaces, issued without an imprint or manufacturer information but consistent in design with other specimens of the era issued under the Saturnia name. Despite its association with Lubrano, Saturnia does not seem to have left much of an obvious footprint; per the 31 December 1919 issue of the Milanese trade journal Giornale della libreria della tipografia e delle arti e industrie affini, Saturnia was a "collettiva (Alfredo e Gaetano Beolchi e Vincenzo Lubrano) fonderia caratteri da stampa ed ogni materiale tipografico di piombo, esercizio ed ampliamento azienda Vincento Lubrano. . . . durata nove anni, dal 29 Septembre scorso, prorogabile. Firmatari i signori Vincenzo Lubrano e Gaetano Beolchi." A few marginal pencil ticks, presumably from a printer selecting types. Not found on OCLC. A few light inky stains, some light soiling and wear; in very good condition.
