Röhsska kontslöjdmuseet (Göteborg, Sweden) · 1921 · Göteborg : Röhsska konstslöjdmuseet · 3 pictures

A 1921 catalogue issued by the Röhsska konstslöjdmuseet in Gothenburg to accompany an exhibition of modern English printing and bookbinding, aimed at Swedish craftsmen, collectors and museum visitors. Plates reproduce private-press pages in gothic type with white-vine initials on solid black grounds, scrolling leaf-and-berry ornament strips, and a relief-patterned binding cloth — usable as drop-cap sets, rules and repeating textures.
