In memoriam Ralph Patterson

[Columbia, Missouri]: Sutton Hoo Press, 1995. Edition limited to 50 copies printed from American Uncial by Chad Oness; oblong 16mo, pp. [12]; fine in original gray wrappers with a vignette illustration printed in red. From the library of Kim Merker. Google has its limits and there are a gazillion Ralph Pattersons. So I wrote to Chad Oness who sent this: "He was an old graphic artist I met through the woman from whom I got my press years ago. Part of a group of typophiles living in DC. I don't think he was a figure who was marked for any public fame, which is, in part, the reason for that little elegiac book ... He was a kind and helpful man, and I would have liked to have known him better ... I love that little book." OCLC locates the Univ. of Washington, Wisconsin, and the University of Missouri - Columbia copies only. Item #62844
