The diamond : a study in Chinese and Hellenistic folk-lore
A 1915 anthropological series monograph published in Chicago by the Field Museum of Natural History, written by Berthold Laufer, curator of anthropology, on diamond lore in Chinese and Hellenistic folk traditions. The only picture is the title page, set in classical spaced capitals with a circular Field Museum seal and the Chicago date, offering a designer a model of restrained, centred early twentieth-century academic typography.
