In 1880 he joined the publishers Houghton Mifflin & Company of Boston as an errand boy. He worked for the firm's Riverside Press and trained as a printer but soon moved to typographic design. In 1896 he founded the Merrymount Press. . Updike was greatly interested in the history of printing types and in 1922 published Printing Types: Their History Forms and Use. An extensively revised second edition was published in 1937.

19035696Berkeley California: The Church; Printed by thePress of Standard Publishing Company 1903. Octavo 23.25 x 14 cm. iv 171 i pages. Advertisements. Index. Evident first edition but subsequent to an 1884 publication with different subtitle author statement and publisher. A generous church cookbook with seven hundred recipes; noteworthy among them: Squash Muffins Celery Root and Hearts of Artichoke Mussel Bordelaise Clam Patties Spanish Meat Pie Coffee Fruit Cake Lemon Cocoanut Cake Cookies with Sherry Monterey Pudding Gooseberry Pudding Pineapple Blanc-Mange Strawberry Mousse. ~ Congregationalists answered the call from President Daniel Coit Gilman 1831-1908 of the University of California to build a hall and organize a fellowship of moral vision within reach of the campus community. The “local church†emphasis of Congregationalist governance had already attracted the largest Protestant presence in San Francisco. After ten years of planning members of Berkeley First Congregational were called to new quarters by a recently cast bell on 30 September 1884 at the corner of Durant Avenue and Dana Street. Thus the early version of The Berkeley Cook Book subtitled A Collection of Choice and Tested Recipes celebrated the dedication of the 1884 church while its younger sibling of 1903 would have appeared in time to honor the building’s twentieth anniversary. ~ In another twenty years they would move again to a grander brick complex on Channing Way still only a few city blocks from campus designed by the Bay Area architect Horace Gardner Simpson. It served successive generations for ninety years but in September 2016 was gutted by fire and the building’s fate is undetermined as of this writing. ~ Clean and bright. Lightly wear at fore-corners and spine. Stapled in olive wrappers titled in brown. Very good.

2053Berkeley: University Relations 2008. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very good. An uncommon photo book that commemorates the launch of the Campaign for UC Berkeley in 2008 highlighting the campus in pictures and in words from renown alumni and others. This is Joan Didion's copy with a university notecard to her laid in from one "Mary Kay" likely someone in University Relations. It reads in full: "Dear Joan Greetings from Berkeley! We have found yet another way to use your inspirational words about Berkeley. The enclosed book include the summary of your essay in 'There Was Light'--the version you approved for the television spot--as well as another well-used quote of yours at the end of the book. Should you ever want to read your essay again there are many people who have asked about it and would love to hear you read it again--or for the first time. I continue to follow your work and life and admire your strength and optimism. I hope this note finds you filled with hope for the new year. With warmest regards Mary Kay." There Was Light: An Autobiography of a University: Berkeley 1868-1968 referenced in the note was published in 1970 and featured essays about the university from thirty-one notable alumni including Didion. She attended Berkeley from 1953-1956 and went on to become one of California's greatest chroniclers as literary journalist and essayist. See photos for the pages that hold Didion's words. A short quarto in denim blue cloth with the title stamped on the front board; dark blue endpapers and a transparent page guarding the half-title; 130 pages. A short introduction from Chancellor Robert J. Birgeneau on the photo-illustrated jacket's front flap. The jacket depicts the campus's famous Sather Tower The book is fine; the jacket is very good with rubbing to all edges and some faint dampstaining at the center of its spine mainly visible from the jacket's interior and with no discernible effect on the book itself. An incredible UC Berkeley association copy and keepsake; we dare say this would make a one-of-a-kind graduation gift. University Relations hardcover
