Scripps College Press was founded in 1941. In 1986 Kitty Maryatt began teaching the Typography and the Book Arts class; for the next 30 years, Kitty and the students of the class produced an artist book each semester during which the students wrote their own texts, developed imagery, hand-set metal type, printed the collaborative book by letterpress, and bound the books. This bibliography documents all the books produced under the direction of Professor Maryatt, devoting four pages to each book and provides color photos of each book, along with bibliographic and biographical details. Also included is a brief history of the press and lists the Goudy Lecturers and institutions with standing orders.
