Treasures

As the old adage goes, “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”  Here is a primary example!  When I was heading out of work yesterday, I glanced over at our free book shelf by the door and noticed one titled “Books and Printing:  A Treasury for Typophiles,” published in 1963.  This is an edited volume of essays on the history and development of books, typography, and printing.  I honestly don’t know how much (if any) of it I will read, but something like the intrinsic value of a book on books and type prompted me to rescue this lonely volume from the free shelf.
