"Designed and printed by the Circle Press Guildford in Monotype Bembo 270. Etchings printed at Studio Prints London. Mould-made paper from Barcham Green Kent 1972. Paul Verlaine (1844-1896) wrote three secret collections of verse, of which Femmes and Hombres remained almost unobtainable even in France until the 1970s.

Fine. Illus. by Michael Ayrton. Private Press.
