Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1966. Very Good EX-LIBRARY in Very Good dust jackets (NO library markings on the jackets). Blank front flyleaves neatly excised. 2 volumes, complete. 338pp/345pp. Sharp corners. 1966. Second printing of the Third edition. This edition adds a new 6-page PREFACE by Lawrence C.

Cambridge: Harvard University Press. Near Fine. 1937. Second Edition. Hardcover. 2 Vols.; 292pp. & 326pp.; 8vo; red cloth, spine lettered in gilt; illustrated with reproductions throughout. Very light rubbing to spines, gilt a bit dulled. Bound into the front of both volumes, a printed sheet: "This set of, 'Printing Types', is affectionately inscribed to Floyd C.

Below this a vertical rule, signed on each side by Halle, Cordis, and 13 of his other associates, on both sheets. Also laid in, is a black & white photograph of three men and a woman, posing in 'firefighter' helmets. Appears to be a later copy from an older photograph, with writing in black ink on the reverse, i.e. '19THc Typographic' ; "Assoc Workers' ; 'Money Pot for Printers in Need' ; 'Caste de Chapelle' ; 'Sale of these copies: $ Into Caste', etc.…
