Printed pages from English literature : a portfolio of original leaves taken from rare and notable printed books. Apart from their picturesque qualities and historic interest, these speciments will prove of great value in tracing the evolution of the printed page and the hand lettering from which it sprang. Though complete in itself, this portfolio is one of a series covering the world's literature from earliest times to the present day. - Brown, G. M. L. (George M. L.) (Society of Foliophiles, 1925)
