dates back to 1639, making it the oldest book-printing establishment in America. One of the earliest books issued by the Press while under the charge of Samuel Greene is still in existence, being cherished as a valued relic of the printer's art in the Massachusetts Historical Society. The volume is entitled The General Laws and Liberties of the Massachusetts Colony, revised and reprinted by order of the General Court holden in Boston, May 15, 1672, according to the printed statement of Edward Rawson, secretary. The imprint shows that the book was printed in Cambridge by Samuel Greene, for John Usher of Boston, in 1672. The type on the title page is included within a double rule border. Its covers are of the sort that legal books of a century ago were generally inclosed within, and the frayed edges of the leaves are the color of sienna. The leaves are untrimmed. The book is about 13 by 7 by 1 1/4 inches,—a medium folio of its day. The typographical characters are peculiar when c
