Private Press File

Page from Limited Editions Club book
Crime and Punishment,
Limited Editions Club, 1948

This private press information page began as a cardfile maintained by the department of Special Collections. This file contains information on the private presses that produced materials owned at MU Libraries. Cross references are included for presses represented in the Press Ephemera Collection.

This page also includes information about the craftspersons involved in the process of book production -- binders, designers, illustrators, papermakers, printers, and private press proprietors.

Not all the private press material listed here is housed in the Division of Special Collections, nor are any of these items considered to constitute a separate private press collection. This page is provided to supplement and expand the information available in Special Collections' private press cardfile and to make that information more accessible to researchers.
