What reading level is Bookbinders And Their Craft book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Boards made of paper or vellum pasted together under great pressure now took the place of wood.
With the introduction of printing, manu- scripts ceased to retain their former value, 176 BINDING BY BOLLCAERT EARLY STAMPED BINDINGS and many were ruthlessly destroyed to make the boards for the new bindings. The most valuable vellum sheets were used for the purpose, and by soaking these boards very important information concerning early manuscripts has since been discovered.
A little later, we find... the same thing repeated with the cast-off sheets of the printer used in the same way to make boards for the binder, and thus, again, many valuable links in the chain of evidence con- cerning our early printers have been brought to light.
The panel stamp was developed in dif- ferent ways according to the genius of the country that adopted it. In the Nether- lands it is generally formal, and the accom- panying illustration represents a very usual type. The spirals of foliage contain birds or beasts of a grotesque kind, and round the edge of the panel runs a motto or text with which is associated the name of the binder.
