New York: The Grolier Club, 2008. paperback. Grolier Club. 6 x 9 inches. paperback. 22 pages. First edition. A fine copy. This catalogue accompanies the exhibition held at the Grolier Club from November 14 2007 to January 11, 2008. The exhibition was organized by the Prints, Drawing, and Photographs Committee of the Grolier Club. Many Grolier Club members not only collect books, but they also collect works on paper including prints, drawings, and photographs. These collections are often "secondary" or "tertiary" collections of the members, but they reveal a diversity of images and the Club's desire to delve deeper into particular subjects. The catalogue contains descriptions, written by the members, of both their primary and secondary collections. The exhibition and the catalogue were both dedicated in memory of Grolier Club member Wolfgang Herz.
