[Broadside] SAN FRANCISCO: WHERE TYPE GLORIFIES LETTERS

[San Francisco]: John Henry Nash, [1927]. Broadside. Very Good+ binding. Item #7528

Bifolium. 15" x 10" (opening to 15" x 20"). [4] pp. (French fold). Title and woodcut on the front page; two pages of text with title running across the page spread; back page is blank. Light crinkling to the paper; rear cover is just a trifle soiled.

A beautifully printed appreciatory note by Nash for having received first honors in the Graphic Arts Leaders of America Exhibition in both 1926 and 1927 for El Toison de Oro and for Rime of the Ancient Mariner respectively. A very nice address in which he praises Pacific Coast printers for their increasing distinction: "Printing prizes and honors keep coming West." A beautifully printed piece and quite uncommon in the trade and not very common in institutional holdings. We have located only 8 copies in OCLC. (OCLC: 32063159).
