A remarkable new addition to our Special Collections

Recently, the University Library received a large collection of books from the legacy of prof. Stefan Radt (1927-2017). The first book to be catalogued turned out to be a very special item: an edition of Zeitgedicht MCMXXXIX by Wolf Kilian.
It was printed in 1943 by the famous printer, font designer and artist S.H. de Roos (1877-1962) in a total of 25 copies, not meant for sale. Professor Radts copy is numbered "1".
Of course, this special book can be studied in our Special Collections department, uklu KW C 1556.
