Der Pressbengel/The Bone Folder: A Dialogue Between an Aesthetically-Inclined Bibliophile and a Well-Versed-In-All-Aspects-of-the-Craft Bookbinder. Originally written by Ernst Collin, translated and introduced by Peter D. Verheyen. Der Pressbengel, by Ernst Collin, was originally published in German in 1922. This is the 2nd edition in English. Conceived as a dialogue between a bibliophile and a master bookbinder on all aspects of the bookbinding craft as well as specific techniques, the text also addresses the conflicts between quality and cost and matters of good taste. The expanded introduction to the author and his family by the translator discusses the historical context of the decline of formal training, a trend that continues today. This introduction also corrects biographical errors that appeared in the first edition. More about the author at http://pressbengel.blogspot.com/.
