Excerpt from The Plimpton Press Year Book, 1911: An Exhibit of Versatility This volume has been prepared to assist those engaged in the making of books in their every-day experiences particularly with The Plimpton Press - yet it is intended to be of general interest as an exhibit of types and typography, paper and press work, designing, book cloths, and binding. As a matter of convenience, the names of the types, the leading, the difi'erent kinds of paper, the book cloths, etc., have all been carefully indicated, and those who make use of the volume are urged to familiarize themselves with the very full table of contents, which is intended as a complete index to everything except the Style Manual. The Style Manual has a separate index in order to prevent confusion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
