Microfilm; Devoted to a Record of Progress in a Growing Industry

New York: Microfilm Publishing Corporation, 1937.

Price: $450.00

Softcover. First issue. Volume 1, Number 1 (July 1937). 28 pp. With the subscription card bound in. 28 cm. In printed stapled wrappers. Very good with a few tiny tears to the edges, rubbing and darkening to the edges of both wraps, and a three inch tear to the fold at the top staple. Billed as the revolutionary new technology, this is the first trade publication for the microfilm industry. It provides one of the first overviews of microfilm "reading machines," film and cameras, and it features much interesting bravura aimed at winning over librarians to the "Library of the Future." Ceased publication after this first issue. Scarce in paper.
