Copy number 612 of a limited edition of 895 numbered copies. The thirteenth and final publication of Harrison of Paris.

In 1930, the fine press Harrison of Paris was created by Monroe Wheeler, future Director of Exhibitions and Publications at the Museum of Modern Art, and the wealthy Barbara Harrison. “What Wheeler was able to contribute to the press in typographical know-how, the firm’s patron Barbara Harrison, provided in financial support and security … Wheeler was free to consign the Harrison publications to the best European printers he could find and commission the most ‘brilliant draughtsmen’ available to illustrate them.” — Ford, “Published in Paris”, 325.

By 1934, Wheeler and Harrison had returned to America, where they agreed to keep the press going until the publication of “Hacienda” by Wheeler’s close friend Katherine Anne Porter. “‘Hacienda’, Miss Porter’s ‘nouvelle memoir form,’ was an impressive last publication … by one of America’s foremost writers.” — Ford, 344.
