Description:"For now more than 50 years the treasures of the Klingspor-Museum have been steadily growing. 75,000 works of 20th and 21st century book and print art are waiting in the library's shelves and drawers to be admired and read. There is no standing exhibition - if only because of conservation issues - so visitors are all the more encouraged to have the treasures shown to them in the library's reading room, invited by a new picture-card-ABC displayed in different areas all over the building. It highlights selected precious items of the collection and inspires their discovery. If only beginning or more advanced in things of type and book - visitors' specific questions are answered by the library staff as are general enquiries about the collection's treasures. Secondary literature provides additional information on the individuals subject fields." -- from introduction of catalog. One sheet of stickers is included to encourage art enthusiast to design their own cover.
