Historic printing types, a lecture read before the Grolier club of New York, January 25, 1885, with additions and new illustrations;
A lecture on the history of printing types, read before the Grolier Club of New York in 1885 and published there in 1886 by Theodore Low De Vinne, a printer writing for bibliophiles and fellow printers. The pictures are rows of blackletter capitals, shown as a printed specimen sheet and as a numbered plate of Joseph Moxon's models, with clean outlines and dense, angular letterforms that suit display lettering, decorative initials, and historic typeface work.
