The catalog of the first triennial exhibition illustrated examples of twenty-two binders' works and their design concepts for the prize commission (won by Don Etherington of Brown Summit, North Carolina), The Book of Common Prayer, printed on vellum by Daniel Berkeley Updike in 1928. It also includes an essay by Decherd Turner.
