Snapshot from the Library …

Images from a little book  I came across this week in the Cole Library, called  Fatherless Oberlus or the adventures of Patrick Watkins on Charles’ Island in the Galapagos a journal of a cruise made to the Pacific Ocean.

The wood engraved decorations are by  G. Young, M. Webb, B. Cook, T. Naish, S. Green, K. Ambrose, S. Fraser and P. Andrews and its is printed under the direction of Robert Gibbings in the School of Art here at the University of Reading in 1936.
