INTERNATIONAL BOOKBINDING EXHIBITION BY THE CHIEF CRAFTSM...
by Davenport, Cyril.

Catalogue of 75 bindings of a Kelmscott book ("King Florus and the Fair Jehane") from 29 different countries, exhibited at the London bookseller "Caxton Head" in 1894. A number of well-known London binders of the time are represented, but one also finds entries for bindings from Australia, China, Persia and other places. Each binding is described and eight are illustrated with chromolithographic plates. Judging from the descriptions and illustrations, these were bindings partly showing a retrospective, historical style, and partly showing a William Morris-Art Nouveau influence. The introduction by C. Davenport expresses a very conservative view of binding and discusses some of the items. Of interest as a record of non-English and even non-European fine binding at the end of the 19th century. Loosely inserted catalogue description of this item has the following pencil annotation written at the bottom "Leather cover removed, rebound in original wrappers, with grey Moriki spine by D. Evetts 7/21/95." Evetts is a noted binder and conservator.
