Bookbinding is the process of physically assembling a
book from a number of folded or unfolded sheets of paper or other
material. It usually involves attaching a book cover to the resulting
text-block. Before the computer age, the bookbinding trade involved two
divisions.
First, there is stationery or vellum binding which deals with making new
books intended to be written into, such as accounting ledgers, business
journals, and guest log books, along with other general office
stationery such as note books, manifold books, portfolios, and etc.
Second is letterpress binding which deals with making new books intended
to be read from and includes fine binding, library binding, edition
binding, and publisher's bindings. A result of the new bindings is
a third division dealing with the repair, restoration, and conservation
of old used bindings. With the digital age, personal computers have
replaced the pen and paper based accounting that used to drive most of
the work in stationery binding. Today, modern bookbinding is divided
between hand binding by individual craftsmen versus mass-produced
bindings by high speed machines in a bindery factory.
This is a collection of
vintage Bookbinding Books, for a total of 94 books on DVD. Various topics are
covered in these vintage bookbinding books. Topics discussed
including classic methods of repair and restoration, as well as the
origin of books. This is a must have item for anyone interested in
book restoration and repair.
The list of titles, along with author, date of publication, and page
