Skill-building guide to bookbinding techniques, tools, and materials plus glossary and extensive bibliography. Chapters on tools, supplies, ergonomics, signature preparation, endsh eets, sewing, spine-lining, and working with case-weight papers precede complete instructions for ten paper binding structures. ÒContemporary Paper Bindings is a terrific book for beginners as well as seasoned binders. Prominent binder and teacher Karen Hanmer wrote it both to instruct independent bookbinding students and to help artists and librarians teach bookbinding. The text generously shares her expertise. Its clear instructions are enhanced by numerous b&w photographs and line drawings, plus abundant examples of sewing techniques, exposed spines and paper cases as well as excellent lists of supplies, tools and best practices. CPB is a must for photographers, printmakers, painters Ñ hell, anyone Ñ interested in creating their own books.Ó Miriam Schaer, book artist and educator, author of The Presence of their Absence, bookbinding, book arts, book binding, fine binding, design binding, artists books, Karen Hanmer| 9781365224492 | 130PAGES Show more
