Caxton Club
This is the first book published on the subject of book-shaped objects. It is a catalog of an exhibition that took place at the Grolier Club in New York from January 28 through March 12, 2016.
Published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name, this handsome book focuses on a group of Chicago-based small presses-including such operations as Alderbrink Press, Black Cat Press, and the Printing Office of Philip Reed. Their efforts placed Chicago, already established as a major center for commercial printing, on the map of the international fine-press movement between the two world wars.
