The exhibition was curated by R C Kenedy. Tom Phillips designed the cover of this catalogue of British book arts. Sections are devoted to private presses, fine binding, typography and concrete poetry. Particular mention is paid to John Furnival "who paints builds whole landscapes from semantic elements" and Ian Hamilton Finlay "who creates poetry through providing words with a rigorously controlled and potently significant environment." Page 230 depicts John Christie's Word Clock III (1978) that is held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
