Artificial
Poetry, a collection of light verse by Winthrop Aldrich,
was published in 1981. The display type was handset by Walton
Mendelson. Each verse is unique in length and width, and was
optically set to work in spreads. |
Cover/Binding |
At that time, most binaries
considered a book this size a juvenile book, and it had to
meet certain design and production standards that are not
as tightly adhered to today for a book this size. The cover
photograph is by Frank Myers. |
