Address to the Club of Odd Volumes |
 | | Bob claimed that the Eragny Press of Lucien Pissaro, son of Camille, the Impressionist painter, was far more interesting than Kelmscott for its lighter, frenchified adaptation of the heavy roman alphabets that had been created for presses influenced by Morris and for the beautiful color woodcuts that grace its pages. |
 | | In 1965 we closed the Auerhahn Press and I moved the printing equipment downtown to Commercial Street, then on the fringe of the financial district, into the third floor of a pre-earthquake building on what had been the waterline of San Francisco Bay, before the gold seekers arrived and used their ships for landfill. |
 | | Three of the White Whale partners then offered a modest investment in Arion Press that enabled me to plan out an entire year in advance (instead of going from month-to-month), and we established Lyra Corporation as the umbrella. |
