A very good copy, in dust jacket, of this intimate memoir/biography of Reynolds Stone by his son Humphrey. Reynolds Stone (1909-1979) is known as one of the most distinguished wood engravers of the mid-20th century, in particular for his lettering. He helped champion the renaissance in good printing and type design and was an accomplished watercolor painter and letter cutter in stone.
