About This Item
Philadelphia: North American Publishing Company, 1966. First edition. Cloth. Very Good +. Patterned after "The Farmer's Almanac", this is the printer's version of "Today in History". Each day of the year has a short essay about a person or event in the field of printing, from typography to graphics. There's no particular chronology of year, on month and day, so you get a sampling of events over centuries of printing. This does make for fascinating reading if you're a fan of the history of printing. Green cloth; 10.5"x7.25"; 257 pages; 2 full-color folding plates. 1lb 14.4oz
