Holland-backed boards, small 4to, xxxvi, 200 pp. "In his introduction, Duff surveys the book trade between the invention of printing to 1557. Printing came relatively late to England. In 1485, Peter Actors was appointed King's Stationer, but no King's Printer was named. The book trade grew slowly, and foreigners dominated book-selling in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. In 1554, Parliament limited the rights of foreigners engaged in the book trade, and England tried to restrict the importation of foreign books as well. The volume presents biographies of those engaged in the trade and cites references for further study. Appendix II lists the signs of London booksellers; these include the Bishop's Head in St. Paul's Churchyard, the Mermaid in Lombard Street, and the Saracen's Head at Holborn. An important study." - Rosenblum. Booklabel on front pastedown endpaper, boards slightly darkened, toning to free endpapers from contact with pastedowns, otherwise Very Good.
