Octavo. 88pp. The two unrelated texts are printed on two different handmade papers. The first concerns interesting finds in the paper mill archives, including correspondence with William Morris. A facsimile of a letter from Morris and his ream wrapper is included, and a facsimile of his personal check and his drawing for a watermark are tipped in, plus two folding poster facsimiles. The second text is illustrated with woodcuts by Gene Shaw. Fine in quarter leather, but lacking the plain dust wrapper with a pocket containing a full sheet of Kelmscott paper. Instead this copy contains laid in examples of Barcham Green Charter Oak paper with an announcement of a lecture on the subject by Simon B. Green, and of Langley paper via an announcement of its making.
