{ "item_title" : "Modern Bookbinding Practically Considered - A Lecture", "item_author" : [" William Matthews "], "item_description" : "First published in 1889, Modern Bookbinding Practically Considered contains an interesting lecture on the subject of bookbinding by William Matthews. Bookbinding refers to the process of physically assembling a book using ordered paper sheets which are folded together into sections or left as a stack of individual sheets. This is then bound together along one edge by either sewing or using a flexible adhesive. This volume will appeal to bibliophiles and others with an interest in the history and development of binding techniques. Contents include: An Address on Modern Bookbinding Practically Considered, The Aldine Style, The Maioli Style, The Grolier Style, The Eve Style, The Gascon Style, The Roger Payne Style, Modern Design, A Modern Design, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of bookbinding.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/52/871/270/1528712706_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "19.99", "online_price" : "19.99", "our_price" : "19.99", "club_price" : "19.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
