Martin Hutner and Jerry Kelly present the hundred greatest printed books of the twentieth century.

A typophile’s delight, every book is illustrated in fine line duotone, many in color, and the captions that accompanied the original Grolier Club exhibit have been transcribed intact.

It is noteworthy that only two books in the survey were printed by offset; the rest are all letterpress. And although America is strongly represented, there are also selections from Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands, England, Wales and Switzerland.

Martin Hutner has served as a president of the American Printing History Association, a board member of the Grolier Club, and a curator at the Houghton Library. Jerry Kelly is a calligrapher, book designer, and type designer; his work has been honored more than thirty times for the AIGA “Fifty Books of the Year.” In 2015 he was presented with the 28th Goudy Award from RIT. Before starting his own design business in 1998, Kelly was Vice President of The Stinehour Press, preceded by a decade as designer at A. Colish. Kelly has taught typography at Pratt Institute and Parsons School of Design in New York. Kelly has served as Chairman of the American Printing History Association, President of The Typophiles, and has written several books on calligraphy and typography, most recently Type Revivals.
