Hupp also uses imaginative typefaces and varied border desings. Designed for practical as well as decorative use, thre are blank lines adjacent to the name of the appropriate saint. Many of these are neatly filled in with pencil notations, giving a picture of a family's upper middle class life in those pre-war years.. Contemporary Buckram. Very Good.
