The Common Press: Being a Record, Description & Delineation of the Early Eighteenth-Century Handpress in the Smithsonian Institution, with a History & Documentation of the Press by Elizabeth M. Harris
Instructions for constructing a replica 18th-century common press, with interesting prefatory comments on the history of the "Franklin Press" at the Smithsonian. Useful and well designed.
