"This ninth New Year Booklet is printed in Blado type rounded up with Poliphilus as necessary, on Zerkall paper.  The machine setting was done by Stan Lane at Gloucester Typesetting, paper supplied by the crew at John Purcell Paper.  Two hundred copies have been printed fettled and bound at Incline Press by Graham Moss & Kathy Whalen"--Colophon.

With binder's ticket: "Bound by Hand at Incline Press".

"P.S. The tiny label reading Bound by Hand at Incline Press is a Fry foundry type, but cast in six-point by Theo Rehak at the Dale Guild in New Jersey.  One of the small pleasures of antiquarian or old books is the pasted-in presence of binders' or booksellers' labels, some of them in leather or a simulation embossed in gold.  Though they serve the purpose of advertisement they also bespoke a sense of pride. BNL"--Lower paste-down endpaper.
