ISBN 1870495012
This eddition published 1987 by Plantin Paperbacks, first published 1960, this is what is termed a trade reprint 302 pp with a few black and white illustrations.
Chronicles the story of Plantins life and printing and publishing acomplishments. His trials and tribulations with the religious and regal persons in power at the time. I enjoyed reading my copy very much.
The book is in good condition. The paper cover has a light clamp markon the side. The rear cover had a spot about 10mm where the surface has been torn off and I have pasted it back such as one might see on the clumsy removal of a sticker. The covers have a few other scuff marks and light creases. The text block looks excellent and the spine shows no signs of the book having been read.
I have another copy in similar condition for sale as well
