The colophon is also signed by printer Andew Hoyem. Below the full-page wood engravings on p. 357, Moser has made a small pencil drawing of the image, which he has signed and dated 1-V-93. One of the masterpieces from the Arion Press, a superb printing of this American literary high spot, with striking illustrations drawn and engraved by Barry Moser. William Everson wrote in Fine Print: "Historically, the two great typographical edifices of West Coast printing are the Grabhorn Leaves of Grass and the Nash Divine Comedy. Now the Arion Press Moby-Dick takes its place beside them. This constitutes a feat of craftsmanship unexcelled in modern printing."
