Catalog of the exhibition at Christ's College, Cambridge, 1908.

"This is a reprint, on hand made paper, of the Milton Tercentenary catalogue, and was prepared after the exhibition had been closed. In order to make it as useful as possible to collectors of Milton engravings, all the items in the list from pages 29 to 90 have been renumbered, a separate number being given to every print whether an example of it was, or was not, shown at the exhibition. The earlier catalogues will show the actual prints exhibited in Cambridge, while this reprint is intended to be a work of reference with regard to all the prints at present known ... Three hundred copies only, of this special edition of the catalogue, have been printed for the author, and are for private circulation."--Note.
