Subtitled, “A Plea for Bibliomania,” Tredwell’s monograph was prepared upon the invitation of the Rembrandt Club in Brooklyn, New York, to tell of his experiences in the “seductive” art of privately illustrating books. The paper was read on December 8, 1880, but was so popular the club printed it in book form.
