Printers' Marks: A Chapter In The History Of Typography is a book written by William Roberts and originally published in 1893. The book explores the history and significance of printers' marks, which are the symbols or logos used by printers to identify their work. Roberts provides a detailed analysis of the development of printers' marks from the earliest days of printing to the late 19th century. He discusses the various types of marks used by printers, including those used by individual printers, printing houses, and guilds. He also examines the symbolism and meaning behind many of these marks and discusses the role they played in the development of typography as an art form. The book is illustrated with numerous examples of printers' marks from throughout history, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of printing and typography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
