| Summary | "Will Bradley, His Chap Book" by Will Bradley is an autobiographical account written in the mid-20th century that delves into the life and career of the author as an influential figure in American graphic arts. This memoir captures his journey from a young boy printer in Michigan to becoming a prominent designer and publisher, detailing his contributions to typography and print design during the vibrant Gay Nineties and beyond. The book likely covers themes related to art, design, and the evolution of printing techniques throughout his life. In "Will Bradley, His Chap Book," Bradley recounts the pivotal moments of his life that shaped his artistic vision and professional trajectory. It begins with his childhood experiences as a boy printer in Ishpeming, Michigan, where he first discovered his passion for printing and design. He shares anecdotes of his early struggles, including his first jobs, his attempts to learn the craft, and his aspirations to become an artist. The narrative elaborates on his influential years in Chicago, where he became acquainted with significant artistic movements, and continues through his establishment of the Wayside Press in Springfield, Massachusetts. Bradley's detailed reflections on his creative process, his love for typography, and the impact of his work on American printing culture illustrate not only his personal journey but also the broader developments in graphic arts during his lifetime.
