The eminent American book and type designer Bruce Rogers (1870-1957) designed a set of printer's ornaments in the early 20th century. Combinations of these ornaments are presented in this small booklet, Bruce Rogers Ornaments, printed in 1996 by Kentucky surgeon and hobbyist printer Blaine Lewis (1919-2001) at his Innominate Press in Louisville, Kentucky. Dr. Lewis writes that Rogers became interested in printer's ornaments around 1917 when he found that available ornaments he wished to use "seemed too elaborate and refined."

. . . he photographed a 16th-century arabesque, made line block proofs, cut them into their simplest component units and then shifted them about to form different patterns. . . .he began scanning old specimen books and lifting from obscurity an odd assortment of lines, braces, and geometrical scraps in an attempt to isolate the simplest form to develop a set of flowers. Therefore, . . . forms were developed by Rogers of copies from previously designed pieces of adaptations from parts of the originals found in old specimen books.

Our copy of this type display booklet is another donation from the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick (1946-1922).
