Printed by the Cayme Press for the Chelsea Publishing Company, 1924; hand-blocked paper over boards. Likely issued in only 1,000 copies . The Cayme Press was a small, private press founded in 1923 by Philip A.L. Sainsbury in London. Named after an old West Country family, the press operated as a hobby for Sainsbury to print limited edition books on topics of personal interest in attractive typographic designs, particularly those relating to Catholicism, Royalism, genealogy, and heraldry. The press used old-style Caslon type and an etching press for artists. Though operating on a hand press, more ambitious works were contracted to outside printers under Sainsbury's direction. The Cayme Press specialized in thoughtfully designed and printed books rather than commercial works, epitomizing private press book production in early 20th century England.

Leipzig, Insel-verlag, 1939. Text within line borders, the majority of the pages being surrounded by Dürer's designs. WITH: Christmas Verse. 4 books in all.
