For the occasion, a catalog was produced, which also uses the writings of Michele Romano, Priamo Pedrazzoli, Mario De Filippis and Gaetano Bongiovanni.

Alfio Milluzzo’s collection is a celebration of engravers, because himself is an engraver, men who invent their own heraldry of the book: each ex libris is like a special and unmistakable noble coat of arms, only that there is no inherited nobility if not that of the brain, of the way of seeing life and of giving its treasures to others.
