A remarkable suite of illustrations, including many of the foremost illustrators of the period, printed at the Curwen Press. The Cresset Press was an imprint founded by Dennis Cohen who published several finely printed and illustrated books over four years between 1927 and 1931. Some of these are among the finest productions of the period.No condition report?
