Con- | ceived as a private type for the Officina Bodoni in | Verona, Italy, Dante was originally cut only for hand | composition by Charles Malin, the famous Parisian | punch cutter, between 1946 and 1952. Its first use was in | an edition of Boccaccio’s Trattatello in laude di Dante | that appeared in 1954. The Monotype Corporation’s | version of Dante followed in 1957. Although modeled | on the Aldine type used for Pietro Cardinal Bembo’s | treatise De Aetna in 1495, Dante is a thoroughly modern | interpretation of the venerable face. | Composed by Creative Graphics, | Allentown, Pennsylvania | Printed and bound by R. R. Donnelley & Sons, | Harrisonburg, Virginia | Designed by Anthea Lingeman’. [230-232]: blank.

Love, etc. | Dust Jacket Draft (Jonathan Cape, 2000)

Notes on this item: Just prior to Jonathan Cape’s publication of Julian Barnes’s novel Love, etc, the author made the decision to alter the title slightly by removing the final “stop” after “etc”. The publisher made the change in time for publication, but a small number of full-sized, variant dust jackets had already been distributed to potential reviewers. The full stop was added back to the title for the Alfred A. Knopf edition in the U.S.

The images above show the variant dust jacket with the full stop in place and the final, first edition jacket with the full stop removed.

Before She Met Me (Jonathan Cape, 1991)

Notes on this edition: In 1991, Jonathan Cape reissued Julian Barnes’s novel Before She Met Me in hardback format. The first edition hardback was originally published in 1982, and because Cape did not make changes to the reissued book outside of small changes to the title page, copyright page, and dust jacket, the reissue may be classified technically as as a first edition, second printing.
