First published in 1880, this volume contains a comprehensive and accessible guide to bookbinding. Written in simple, clear language and profusely-illustrated, 'The Art Of Bookbinding' will be of considerable utility to modern readers with practical interest in the subject, containing everything one needs to know to get started. Contents include: 'Folding', 'Beating and Rolling', 'Collating', 'Marking-up and Sewing-in', 'Sewing', 'Forwarding', 'Pasting-up', 'Putting on End Papers', 'Trimming', 'Glueing-up', 'Rounding', 'Backing', 'Mill Boards', 'Drawing-in and Pressing', 'Cutting', 'Colouring the Edges', 'Gilt Edges', 'Head-banding', etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with the original text and images.
