Second edition, large 12mo (190 x 130 mm), 226pp., text a little stained in places, new endpapers, orig. cloth, spine and fore-edges rather garishly strengthened with black tape, a copy obviously well-used by a working compositor. A scarce printer's manual which was first published in 1859.
First edition, 8vo (205 x 125 mm), iv, 446pp., 1 plate showing typographical marks (foxed and offset onto title), text moderately browned in places, 32 page author text followed by 326 pages of specimens of type in different sizes, from the foundry of Mr Thorne in Fan Street, Aldersgate Street, with footnotes by the author, pp. 359-446 contain tables with the regular charges for printing works of the same size type length and width as the foregoing specimen pages, cont. half calf, rebacked with original spine laid-down, marbled boards, corners rubbed through. A compendium of information on the early nineteenth-century printing trade: payment for compositors, master printers' rates, typographical marks, casting off copy, type specimens, etc. This book is far scarcer than Stower's earlier work The Printer's Grammar of 1808.

2008ill., br. "The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog" è il pangram più famoso in lingua inglese, ovvero la frase di senso compiuto più breve possibile in cui vengono utilizzate tutte le lettere dell'alfabeto. Proprio per questo si presta per testare con semplicità la resa grafica dei caratteri tipografici: tutte le lettere, subito, a disposizione, che si nascondono in costruzioni, segnali stradali e arredi urbani. Sono sottili, immobili, non urlano per essere sentite, ma sono ovunque. Sono caratteri di vita urbana, un continuo fluire tipografico silenzioso, un "dalla A alla Z" realizzato interamente a Londra con la collaborazione di Andreu Llorens. Da un'idea a metà fra design e fotografia, il repertorio dei 26 caratteri stampati e rilegati.
