Cercle de la librairie
The 1st part of this book is a retrospective of the history of French typography. The 2nd part, concerning modern typography, lists all of the companies participating in the exhibition as well as their principle partners, date of starting in business and medals won. These include the photomechanical printing firms Charles Chardin, Firmin-Didot, Goupil, Motteroz, and Quantin. The book ends with 112 pages of ads for French firms in the printing trades, as well as some photomechanical advertisements. This first catalogue of the Cercle is useful because of the information regarding some of the important photomechanical printers in Paris. Also, the ads are extremely informative about Lemercier and Goupil in particular. -- Hanson Collection Catalog, p. 64-65.
