Practical bookbinding : a text-book intended for those who take up the art of bookbinding, and designed to give sufficient help to enable handy persons to bind their books and periodicals
A 1908 London instructional manual by W. B. Pearce, published by P. Marshall for amateurs binding their own books and periodicals. Halftone photographs show hands at work—sewing, folding, paring leather, glueing—cropped close over benches and boards, often stacked in paired panels; useful for gesture studies, tool silhouettes and coarse-screen grain.
