This was the last volume of The Fleuron printed at Curwen Press; for the earlier issues see 1 Fn, 2 Gl, 3 Gm; Oliver Simon and Stanley Morison had intended from the start to publish a series of 8 volumes, transferring editorial control partway through Moran 1971 p.81-92; see Simon 1973 p.171 for evidence of changed production plan; volumes V, VI and VII(1930) were edited by Stanley Morison and printed at Cambridge University Press. Note inconsistent use of arabic and roman volume numbers.
