The American Printing History Association (APHA) invites applications for
the 2017 Mark Samuels Lasner Fellowship in Printing History for the study
of printing history. An award of up to $2,000 is available for research in
any area of the history of printing in any form, including all the arts and
technologies relevant to printing, the book arts, and letter forms.
Applications are especially welcome from those working in the area of
American printing history, but the subject of research has no geographical
or chronological limitations, and may be national or regional in scope,
biographical, analytical, technical, or bibliographical in nature. Study
related to the history of printing with a recognized printer or book artist
may also be supported. APHA fellowships are open to individuals of any
nationality. Applicants need not be academics and an advanced degree is not
required. The fellowship can be used to pay for travel, living, and other
expenses

Applications and supporting materials should be received by Monday,
December 5, 2016, and the fellowship will be formally awarded at the annual
meeting of the American Printing History Association in New York City, on
Saturday, January 28, 2017. Full information and the application form may
be found at: https://printinghistory.org/programs/fellowship/.
