| Artist/Maker | Maker: Obverse: Art Institute F0rell [sic] Pussli Zurich. Reverse: Art Institute Orell Pussli Zurich. The two lines for the Printer are different on each side: the line on the obverse looks like a printing error, not only in the use of the "f" rather than the "p" but the "o" following the "f" on the front is not a letter but looks more like the number "0" (compare this with the "O" in the word "Orell" for shape). This is a common printing error with hand-set type. - My. Hynes. 7/16/98. |
