Biographical/Historical Note

David L. Kent is author of Barbados and America and other genealogical sourcebooks. He is publisher of genealogical and typographical periodicals The Lincoln Log: Studies from the Medieval Records of Norfolk, England, and Titivillitia: Studies of Illiteracy in the Private Press. Since 1977 he has been employed as a U.S. research agent for Debrett's and Burke's peerages. He also has served as archivist for the Amalgamated Printers Association.

Carol Kent, his wife, founded Erespin Press in Austin, Texas in 1980. Carol also worked as printer for the Press at the Humanities Research Center (University of Texas at Austin).

Scope and Content

This collection will be of particular interest to researchers and scholars exploring letterpress printing and graphic arts. The collection primarily is comprised of correspondence, printed ephemera, and publications created by letterpress printers, bookbinders, calligraphers, booksellers, book designers, typefounders, and collectors. Several prominent individuals in the profession are represented in the collection, including Wilbur L. Doctor, Guy Raymond Botterill, Jr., Richard L. Hopkins, David Churchman, Polly Boettger Johnson, Duane Scott, Egdon H. Margo, J. Ed Newman, and Harry Ward Ritchie. The bulk of the materials in the collection are dated between 1967 and 2005.

The collection also includes business correspondence (1985-1988), articles and news clippings, photographs, and memorabilia such as keepsakes from Wayzgoose, the annual meeting of the Amalgamated Printers' Association. Kent also created six binders containing approximately 700 proprietor cards for printers and others in the printing and graphic arts profession.

Acquisition Information

Donated in 2005 by David L. Kent.

Processing Notes

The collection was arranged and described by David L. Kent prior to acquisition in 2005. In 2005-2006, department staff conducted further processing of the collection (e.g., transferring materials to archival folders and boxes). No materials were discarded, but some materials were separated from original folders and described separately (in particular, printed publications). Thus, the description of the collection's arrangement provided by Kent in the introductory material binder differs from the current arrangement of the collection.

Proprietor Cards for Printers
Six binders containing approximately 700 proprietor cards and descriptive sheets for letterpress printers, bookbinders, collectors, booksellers, and others interested in the book arts, including book designers, calligraphers, typefounders. Each sleeve found in this group of binders represents one printer and typically includes proprietor cards, Amalgamated Printers Association numbers for members of the APA, and references to related materials found in the collection (e.g., correspondence and ephemera). There are multiple cards in some cases, as the proprietors sometimes moved, changed their operations, or renamed the presses. Some proprietor cards have information on their versos. Kent added the year of death, if known.
