When it comes to fine books, I started with the Folio Society. I very quickly learned about the Franklin Library, Easton Press, and then the many other Fine Presses, some of which I was lucky enough to purchase standard copies from; but Limited Editions were out of my price range at the time, something reserved for rich, old collectors who had been at this for a long time . . .
Fast forward 8 years, and I found myself in the position not only to be able buy some of these, but to actually have an interest in doing so; being a reader of books rather than a collector, the latter was never much of an interest, given that standard editions from the Fine Presses satisfied my biblio-aesthetic requirements of the works I actually intended to read.
And so I present for the reader’s pleasure, the Limitation Pages of the small number of Limited Edition works that I consider myself extremely lucky to own, some of which are quite interesting indeed (I’ve put those at the start - )
N.B If viewing on mobile, tapping the small dot at the bottom right will display my explanatory text
P.S. I plan to make individual posts for all the books I own. Links to those will be added over time as I make them
