publishing beautifully illustrated and designed classic literature for a
limited number of subscribers. Much of the Club’s fame stems from its use of
some of the best illustrators and artists available. Each title was
uniquely designed with individualized paper, cover materials, and most books
are numbered and signed by the Illustrator.
