About This Item
San Francisco: Grabhorn Press & Andrew Hoyen. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. All three volumes of this great bibliography. The leather on Volume 1 was fairly acidic and often deteriorates. That volume has been here rebacked to style in fresh goatskin matching the original. Contents of all three volumes fine or near fine. Volume 1 is signed in the colophon by Ed and Robert Grabhorn. Volume 3 is inscribed by Jane and Robert Grabhorn. A beautiful set and an indispensable reference work.
