Martin Cohen Collection of Kalamazoo Fine Press Ephemera
The Martin Cohen Collection of Kalamazoo Fine Press Ephemera contains ephemera
(printed matter such as bookmarks, envelopes, pamphlets, handbills, and etc.)
printed in the Kalamazoo area. Mr. Cohen (WMU Professor Emeritus) was a professor
of the former School of Librarianship at Western Michigan University where he
taught the History of the Book. His interest in printing evolved from teaching
this course.
The collections' focus is primarily on the items Mr. Cohen printed himself,
catalogues he used to purchase printing materials, ephemera from The Private
Press & Typefoundry of Paul Hayden Duensing, and a booklet from the Michigan
Letterpress Guild (2000) with printing examples from other Michigan fine presses.
