About This Item
The Bibliographical Society, 2004 4to (25.5 cm), 328 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (minor shelf-wear). "This collection of essays - edited and in many cases expanded versions of lectures delivered over a dozen years - demonstrates the change in direction the study of bookbinding history has taken. Much of the work published here is based on minute observation of details of structure, techniques and materials, as well as on close study of decorative tools and the ways in which these were used to achieve the many splendid designs that reflect the styles and fashions of their day." (from the blurb)
