Fine and Historic Bookbindings from the Folger Shakespeare Library. Folger Shakespeare Library / Harry N. Abrams, Washington, DC, 1992, one of 2500 copies.. 272 pp, 4to (12 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0810933128. The catalogue of the exhibition. "Among the earliest bindings displayed is one of a volume of the works of Thomas a Kempis, printed in Nuremberg in 1494. A six-link iron chain is attached to the top edge of the book. When printing was still relatively new and books were costly, they were often attached to their shelves by chains. Bookbindings with gilt decoration are also on display, many bearing coats of arms of sovere igns and of noble families. Four books in the present collection were bound for Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, a favorite of Queen Elizabeth I, whose personal Bible - bearing a crimson velvet binding with engraved silver clasps and bosses - i s a lso among the volumes reproduced here. One of the most exquisite bindings is of red velvet decorated with raised silver thread and hundreds of seed pearls forming a floral arrangement. It covers a manuscript in the hand of Esther Inglis, a no te d 1 7th-century calligrapher. Shakespeare is represented by a First Folio bound sometime between 1780 and 1790 - with the original binder's bill included! - as well as by three lavish 20th-century bindings: a jeweled binding by Alberto Sang o rsk i o n a 1 926 edition of the 'Songs and Sonnets', a dark blue goatskin binding with inset miniature portraits of Shakespeare surrounded by gold tooling, and a 1901 editon of the 'Sonnets' printed on vellum, hand illuminated, and bound in emera ld goa tski n with gilt tooling and leather onlays. (This book) includes more than 150 examples of the binder's craft, each fully annotated by the curatorial staff of the Folger Library."
