np. Title page and text ruled in red throughout. 24mo. Original full decorated paper binding. Cover paper label. Designed and printed by Kurt H. Volk. Signed by Kurt H. Volk. Number 12 of a very Limited Edition. Lovely little copy. Kurt Hans Volk (1884-1962) was born in Germany, and probably trained as a printer/typographer there. He worked for many years at N.W. Ayers in Philadelphia before starting his own typographic firm in 1927. He widely lectured on advertising typography and authored the important work: "Using Type Correctly." He greatest influence as a designer was probably as a consultant to the Merganthaler Linotype Company. Today he is probably best known for a private series of keepsakes and limited edition books distributed to friends at Christmas. We are pleased to be able to offer one of these here.
