Summary
Full description
Orientation: VerticalText Substrate: white, wove paper Ink/Pigment: black printing ink, iron gall ink on left pastedownType: BOUND BOOK Binding Type: UncertainDate of Binding: Contemporary Binder's Name: BritishEnd Leaves: tipped single-fold of machine-made white wove paper, the outer leaf pasted to the board Structure: BritishEdges: opened bollts tthe head, rough trim on the fore and tail edges Spine Lining: flat, angled joints, overall lining of paper, the extensions adhered to the boards after the cover was turn-in.End Bands: NoneBookmark: NoneBoards: 1 mm rope-fibre couched laminate boards, no back-cornering, slips frayed and pasted to the inner surface, trapped by the pastedowns. Covering: full cover of drab, grey-brown wove paper. Although the spine is now adhered to the spine of the bookblock, it may originally have had a natural hollow back, making it an adhesive case binding. Tooling: no tooling. Printed title label of white paper [Price 10s. 6d.]Furniture: NoneEnclosure: NoneBinding Notes: The binding as it now is is rather puzzling, as it is not a typical adhesive case binding, nor was it bound in boards. Could the ‘case’ have been made up before attaching to the pasted endleaves and slips? The cover appears had turn-ins across the spine at head and tail, but these are now missing, suggesting some sort of intervention. Skinned paper from the free endleaf on the head-edge turn-in on the right board show that the pastedown was pasted out and the covered board closed on it. A repaired adhesive case binding is the probable answer.
