Descrizione
First edition, 8vo (233 x 145 mm), 61, [1 blank]pp., the text appears in Dutch and French on facing pages, 4 folding plates, text lightly spotted, paper wrappers, orig. plain boards. ìContaining the first full and authoritative account of the Muller stereotyping process, the earliest known (save the doubtful claim of Valleyre); preceeding Gedís experiments by a comfortable margin. It was overlooked or ignored by the 19th-century historians, who dismissed Mullerís products as merely soldered forms of type metal. Its existence was unknown to me or my expert advisor when I was preparing William Ged and the Invention of Stereotype (The Library, 1960). Its significance was recognized (through Ellic Howeís copy) by Percy Muir in 1963îóJohn Carter. Bigmore & Wyman, III. p.78.
