Sobre este artículo
Leeds: Elmete Press, 1977. First edition in English limited to 490 copies (this, no. 185); folio, pp. xiv, 126, [4]; 16 plates, typographical ornaments in green; contemporary full olive goatskin by Jennifer Turrentine, cross-hatched in blind, and with onlays of crimson, yellow, gray, and red squares and rectangles, gilt-lettered direct in black on spine, t.e.g.; fine. With a note from Turrentine to Greg Campbell laid in mentioning a clamshell box (which was never made). The original French edition, L'art du relieur [et] doreur de livres (Paris, 1772) was the second printed treatise on bookbinding in French. This work is part of the great Description des Arts et Metiers, which was in preparation from the 1690s and finally began to be published in sections by the Royal Academy of Sciences in 1761. The first separately printed French treatise on bookbinding was Gauffecourt's short (72 pages) Traité de la Relieure des Livres (La Motte, 1763) printed in an edition of only 25 copies, and which is known by only one copy at the Bibliotheque nationale.
