In 2012 former Grolier Club President Eugene Flamm made the Club an extraordinary gift of 29 Shakespeare fine press editions, including the 1912 Doves Press edition of Venus & Adonis, one of 200 copies on Batchelor laid paper. The gift was just one of many made by Dr. Flamm during his terms as Chair of the Grolier Club Library Committee, and as Club President, and it significantly enriched the Club’s collection of representative examples of fine press books.
