Graham Pollard Memorial Lecture
GEOFFREY DAY: The preservation and recycling of ‘waste’ printed sheets in the eighteenth-century book trade. ‘Waste’ printed sheets were preserved for various reasons: commercial, idealistic, and occasionally felonious. Records of such preservation illuminate many areas of the eighteenth-century book trade, from the identification of responsibility for anonymous publications to demonstrating customer expectations.
Unless stated otherwise, all our events are free of charge and anyone interested in the topic is welcome to attend.
Registration is required for all events.
