  (Bookbinding) Mairet, F. (NOTICE SUR LA LITHOGRAPHIE, SUIVIE D'UN) ESSAI SUR LA RELIURE ET LE BLANCHIMENT DES LIVRES ET GRAVURES.
(Chatillon-sur-Seine) n.p. 1824 8vo. later cloth. pp.68-228.
Mairet's Essai sur la Reliure was the major portion of Notice sur la Lithographie. The lithographic portion occupied the first 67 pages and had 5 plates (lacking in this copy). The essay on bookbinding is very early for the subject (SK-7284; Pollard 52). It was added to this second edition of the lithography title and was first printed here. Our copy is excised from this book. A handwritten note states that a previous owner bought it from L.W. Bondy, a London bookseller. Bigmore & Wyman considered the book rare when they printed their bibliography of printing. According to Pollard "Mairet was born in 1786; he became a binder and paper dealer in Dijon until 1821 when he set up as a paper manufacturere in Fontenoy near Montbard..." Bookplate and ownership inscription in pencil.

  (Bookbinding) Marks, P.J.M. BEAUTIFUL BOOKBINDINGS: A THOUSAND YEARS OF THE BOOKBINDER'S ART
New Castle & London Oak Knoll Press & The British Library 2011 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover, dust jacket 190 pages
As a craft of more than 2,000 years, the art of bookbinding has been overlooked in history. Primarily seen for its practical purpose of protecting the pages of a book, it is sometimes hard to recognize the creative aspects of a bookbinding. Beautiful Bookbindings hopes to bring to light this artistic way of thinking by displaying the finest bookbindings as the objects of desire they were originally intended to be. As the great aesthete Oscar Wilde believed, bookbindings are beautiful and artistic in their own wonder.

Because covering materials are prone to fading and deterioration, relatively few examples of early bookbindings have survived. In more recent times, the number of surviving examples has increased due to deliberate efforts to preserve ornate bindings. Despite the difficulty in preserving bindings, this book pieces together the history of bookbinding, using written sources where necessary to fill the gaps that the bindings themselves do not fill.

From exquisite medieval bookbindings made of precious metals and jewels to the unique and highly imaginative creations of contemporary bookbinders, this book celebrates over 100 of the most beautiful bookbindings of the last 1,000 years. Books bound by some of the greatest bookbinders including Mearne, Padeloup, Payne, Simier, Cobden-Sanderson, and others are showcased, further revealing the beauty and skill of this art form. Spanning over ten centuries, some of the books displayed were once owned by Francis I and Henry II of France, Jean Grolier, Thomas Mahieu, Queen Elizabeth I of England, and William Morris. Fully illustrated in color, with specially commissioned studio photography, Beautiful Bookbindings provides a visual overview of the development of this splendid art form. The book focuses on the craft of hand-bookbinding that existed until the Victorian era when mass-produced trade bindings took over. Bookbinding as a craft form never disappeared, however, and the second half of the twentieth century saw a significant revival. The introduction provides an engaging overview of the history and techniques of the craft and of its most important practitioners. Visually stunning, this book will have a wide appeal to anyone with an interest in visual arts, crafts, and book history.
