Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dust jacket frayed at extremities, small part missing from top, part missing from the back. Internally fine). "The tools used by binders to decorate the covers of a book are of three types -- small stamps, rolls and panels. The first two are impressed by hand; the third by a press. In his "English Blind-Stamped Bindings", Mr Oldham classified and illustrated the impressions made on English bindings with stamp and roll-tools. This companion volume gives the same treatment to panels, reproducing all that are known, and giving them intelligible system of classification". (from the publisher's description)
