Description
"Bookbindings Old and New" is a vintage book concerning bookbinding and the Grolier Club, a club and for bibliophiles in New York City founded in January 1884. 'Bookbinding' refers to the process of physically assembling a book using ordered paper sheets which are folded together into sections or left as a stack of individual sheets. This is then bound together along one edge by either sewing or using a flexible adhesive. This volume will appeal to book lovers with an interest in binding, as well as those with an interest in the famous Grolier Club in particular. Contents include: "Grolier and the Renascence", "De Thou and 'Le Gascon'", "Padeloup and Derome", "Bookbindings of the Present", "The Technic of the Craft", "The Binders of Today", "The Outlook for the Future", "The Antiquity of Edition Binding", "The Search for Novelty", "Stamped Leather", "The Summer Clothes of Fiction", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of bookbinding.
