Folio (440 x 270 mm), title followed by 111 leaves printed on one side only, 7 leaves with small area excised, 1 leaf torn in half with remaining portion loosely inserted, 1 leaf torn across centre, title-page printed with elaborate wood-engraved decorative border, some light fraying to blank margins of several leaves, orig. half calf, re-cased, title stamped in gilt on upper cover, corners rubbed. Figgins had issued specimens as early as 1792, but these were in small pamphlet form. By the 1820s they were issuing specimens in a 8vo book form, these were followed by quarto specimens in the early 1840s. "The Quarto Specimen Book was supplemented in 1847 by the 'Epitome of Specimens,' which contains a selection of antiques, blacks, and jobbing types, with flowers, borders, and ornaments, the book and news founts being shown in small paragraphs."?Bigmore & Wyman. This book was continually added to until 1871, when it became too large and heavy for the post, thereafter the specimens issued by Figgins were issued in a smaller condensed form. All edition of this folio specimen are rare. Bigmore & Wyman I p. 218; Gray, p. 185.
8vo (230 x 145 mm), title printed within a ornamental border, followed by [32] leaves of types specimens printed on rectos only, two minor worm pinholes, orig. cloth-backed blue card covers, worn, loss to front and rear cover covers. An apparently unrecorded specimen book from this firm of commercial printers. The firm traded from 14 College Hill, Cannon Street, London from c. 1895 to c. 1909, and were formerly connected with the house of Edward Saunders & Son. They specialised in supply banks and commercial houses with all manner of suitable stationery and account-books, all produced by the best and most artistic kind of lithographic and letterpress printing. No other copy located.
2 Vols., in one, small 4to (260 x 160 mm), 103 leaves including title and two advertisement leaves; 22 leaves including title and advert leaf (ornaments numbered 1-103), all printed on rectos only, printed on thick paper stock, 'Lepard' watermark, orig. boards with marbled covers, printed paper title label to spine (rubbed), inner hinges expertly repaired, a very good uncut copy with wide margins. The Fry's were a Bristol family, and Joseph Fry (1728-87) established the foundry at Bristol in 1764, in partnership with William Pine and Isaac Moore as manager and type-designer. By 1766 the foundry had moved to London, with Moore retiring in 1776 and Pine shortly after. In 1782 Fry took his sons Edmund (especially interested in exotic founts) and Henry into partnership, and made considerable purchases of Greeks and Orientals at the sale of James' foundry. Joseph retired in 1787 and in 1794 Isaac Steele joined as partner until 1808, when Edmund Fry was left in sole control until he admitted his son to partnership. In 1829 the foundry was acquired by William Thorowgood. A very good copy of this extremely rare and substantial specimen book. Berry & Johnson, p. 45; Mosley, 118 & 119.

In 1829 the foundry was acquired by William Thorowgood. A very good copy of this extremely rare and substantial specimen book. Following an introduction, the specimens proceed from Ten line Pica to Diamond: 'the smallest Letter in the World. It gets in considerably more than the famous Dutch Diamond.' There are type in Hebrew and Greek, ornamental, Blacks, Exotics, Ships, Bands, frames, & decorative pieces composed of flowers continuing to a priced section of cast ornaments. This edition not listed by ESTC, Berry & Johnson and Mosley both cite the St. Bride copy only. Berry & Johnson, p. 46; Mosley, 122.

ill., br. "La forma del libro" è un classico della letteratura tipografica, opera di uno dei più importanti e influenti tipografi del Novecento: Jan Tschichold. Questa nuova edizione è interamente riveduta, sia nel testo, che nelle tavole illustrative, e recupera titolo e struttura della prima edizione (Basilea, 1975): un piccolo formato, quasi manuale tascabile da avere con sé in ogni occasione, e l'eloquente sottotitolo di "venticinque risposte sul libro e la tipografia". Elementi che rivelano immediatamente la natura del testo: una raccolta di brevi saggi che coprono un lungo arco di tempo e nei quali l'Autore ci offre la "summa" della sua esperienza, illustrando in maniera chiara e con stile brillante ogni aspetto della progettazione e dell'impaginazione di un libro, e fornendo a tutti - non solo agli esperti della materia - una serie di nozioni ben argomentate e convincenti. A rendere questo libro speciale sono non solo le pagine più tecniche, ma anche le illuminanti pagine in cui l'Autore riflette sull'esperienza della lettura, un aspetto spesso trascurato, ma che deve essere il fine ultimo del lavoro di un bravo progettista di libri: "servitore leale e sensibile della parola scritta".
