Inspired by some posts at looking back at the more affordable but still lovely older editions I was looking at purchasing some of the folio Turgenev editions. I’ve seen some conjecture to whether the older folios stopped being letterpress back in 1985 mostly or 1979 so just wondering if anyone has any of these older editions of the Torrents of Spring,Love and Death and Fathers and Sons and if they are letterpress or not.

Fathers and Sons is letterpress.
".. those members who were disappointed by the Society's abandonment of letterpress in its regular publications in the early 1980s" p.132 of J.W.B.'s article in The Private Library Autumn 2016.
