Limited Editions Club

In October of 1929, just days before the eruption of the Great Depression, a new printing of The Travels of Lemuel Gulliver was released. Beautifully bound and carefully designed, it was the first title issued by the Limited Editions Club. The Club's goal was to put high quality limited edition texts in the hands of those who could not afford to become collectors of first editions and rare books. With this exhibit, the Grinnell College Libraries Department of Special Collections invites you to take a look at some of the remarkable pieces produced over the Club's ninety-year history. Curated by Sam Dunnington, '14. On display 1st floor and lower level of Burling Library.
