Description: The book features a specially made 100-pound letterpress paper with a laid finish from Mohawk Mills in Cohoes, New York. The pages measure 7ΒΌ x 12 inches, with a gilded top edge and untrimmed side and bottom edges. The binding, done by Robert A. Burlen & Son of Hingham, Mass., uses vat-dyed dark-brown top-grain aniline leather from the American Leather Manufacturing Corporation of Rahway, N.J. The spine titling is stamped in gold, and a Henry Pearson engraving is blind-stamped on the front cover, enhancing the book's cohesive design. **Aniline Full Top Grain Leather** is considered the finest leather in the world due to its natural qualities. It retains its unique characteristics, including briar and range marks, without being coated or corrected. Only a colorless soil repellent finish is applied, preserving the natural variations and textures. Each piece of leather is distinct, similar to variations in wood or marble, and shows natural color differences. The leather is supplied by American Leather Manufacturing Corporation of Rahway, N.J. **Care Instructions:**1. The protective coating helps prevent dirt and dust from embedding in the pores.2. Use a slightly dampened soft cloth to wipe off dirt and dust.3. Avoid using furniture polishes, oils, varnishes, or ammonia water.4. The leather will naturally change color and develop a patina over time, similar to saddle leather.
