Grolier Club Collects II: Books, Manuscripts and Works on Paper from the Collections of Grolier Club Members (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781605830636)

This catalogue of books, manuscripts, and works on paper was drawn from the international membership of the Grolier Club and accompanied an exhibition at the Club. Reflecting the breadth and quality of those members' varied collecting interests, the items encompass medieval manuscripts and early printed books, as well as contemporary literature; and rarities ranging from Old Master drawings and prints, to nineteenth- and twentieth-century posters, cartoons and ephemera to livres d'artiste, children's books, book objects, and photographs. These unique objects illuminate the remarkable range of subjects pursued by bibliophiles and provide proof that the collecting of books and prints in the age of the Internet is not only alive and well but thriving.
