Decorated book papers

being an account of their designs and fashions

2nd ed. / edited by Philip Hofer.

"Rosamond B. Loring was an unsurpassed craftsman. Her marbled and paste decorated book papers were sought after by the Merrymount Press, the Club of Odd Volumes, and other publishers concerned with fine bookmaking during the first half of the twentieth century. She did much to revive interest in the crafts of marbling and making paste papers, and was a distinguished and original collector of historical and contemporary decorated papers. The work includes a history of end papers and a description of the many varieties of decorated book papers".
