MANUAL OF THE ART OF BOOKBINDING CONTAINING FULL INSTRUCT...
by Nicholson, James B.
Third printing, the first occured in 1856 and the second in 1871. (Mejer 1950; Appleton p.83; Brenni no.39 - for first edition). Contains twelve plates of bindings and seven samples of marbled paper in addition to the illustrations in the text. James Nicholson (1820-1901) was born in St. Louis but lived most of his life in Philadelphia. He founded the bookbinding firm of Pawson & Nicholson, in Philadelphia, in 1848, and was well qualified to write a practical manual on bookbinding. Indeed, this was the first practical manual written in this country. The book reproduces the specimens of rolls and hand-stamps produced by the early American bookbinder tool makers, Gaskill, Cooper and Fry. 23 pages of ads at end. Wear at spine ends and one small damaged spot along spine.
