Established in 2010 by Michael W. Mitchell '59, in partnership with Professor Walter Feldman, to support the existence at the University of the Ziggurat Press.
Recently, the endowment sponsored the creation of S. J. PERELMAN, which was commissioned and edited by John Hay Professor Emeritus of Bibliography and Professor Emeritus of Visual Art Walter Feldman ADE '55 hon., designed and executed by Elias Roustom of EM Letterpress, and bound by Caitlyn Thompson '09. The handmade book includes an essay by Daniel Asa Rose '71, P'17 and a surprise pop-up on the last page that depicts Perelman's famous portrait by his friend Al Hirschfeld. Made of a letterpress printed paper cover and digital text, the volume contains 20 pages. It was published in a numbered edition of 50.
