About This Item
Americana fvcp Fisher, Vardis. The Caxton Printers in Idaho. A Short History. Cincinnati, Ohio: Society of Bibliosophers, 1944, viii, 32 pages. First edition. The gilt lettering on spine is pretty much worn off but a good plus to very good copy of the book. (Small point: on the verso of the title page there is a small sticker that states: Copyright, 1945 by Lloyd Emerson Siberell, Cincinnati, Ohio). Lloyd Emerson Siberell, born in Kingston, Ohio, was an official of the Norfolk and Western Railroad, but his main interest in life was books and bibiography. He used to refer to himself as a railroad man by vocation and a literary man by avocation. Above all, he was an enthusiastic collector of Powysiana, which had preeminence over the rest of his activities, for he strongly believed that the Powys, and John Cowper especially, would be one day recognised as the great writers they were. $22.50 Box 10
