Then we added a number of extracts from early Oxford books, set by hand in the Fell Types themselves. I now present this keepsake to you as very small token of the gratitude of this ancient Press for the hospitality which you and your countryment have shown me during two visits to America.' - from the accompanying printed folded sheet.
