Quarto. 27, (4)pp. Designed by Maret and printed by him and Nancy Loeber, with photoreproductions of Roman landmarks and architectural details throughout including a folded frontispiece. Printed herein is Gehl's address, "How Can Type History Be Good History?," delivered at the plenary session of ATypI Roma on Friday, September 20, 2002. A fitting marriage between writer and designers, consummating in what Maret describes as "an insightful exploration of historical honesty in typographic revivalism." Bound in quarter yellow cloth with paper patterned with a Maret-crafted type ornament over boards. Fine. Prospectus and note from Maret to a collector laid in.
