Newman, Eric P. (2008)
Book Summary
Deluxe Edition - 4to, original green half morocco, gilt, with marbled sides; spine with five raised bands, ruled, lettered, and decorated in gilt. 168 pages; illustrated in color. Limitation bookplate signed by the author. Fine. Copy No. 18 of the deluxe edition, exquisitely bound by Harcourt Bindery. Newman's Fugio revision was long-awaited by those who had relied for decades on his earlier work, first published in 1949, and the 1976 Kessler volume. The 2008 edition includes color enlargements of all known varieties and considerably expanded historical background information. A beautiful special edition.
