Book Description

A mint copy of this separate printing, from its first appearance in the Printing Historical Society Journal examining the work of the artiste-écrivain lithographe, an essential worker in the nineteenth-century French lithographic trade; describing the working practices, tools and skills of the lithographic writer, with special focus on one highly-skilled practitioner, Émile Niveduab (17961877). His work has survived in a remarkable family collection, including labels, tickets, invitations, invoices, price-lists, advertisements and administrative documents, which provides an unparalleled record of the work of a lithographic letterer at the peak of his skills and at a time when lithography was emerging as a serious player in the field. Quarto, 114pps plus six adverts., 96 illustrations, 13 in colour
