Description

This book, limited to an edition of 300 copies, tells the story of Edward Seymour and his firm, The Fancy Paper Company. This British company manufactured marbled and other decorated (fancy) papers for the book binding and related industries from about 1919 to 1971. With eighteen illustrations showing their principals, methods, and buildings, and twenty tipped-in, original examples of their many fancy papers, this work is a wonderfully researched text about one of the last English marbled paper manufacturing firms. Dr. Berger shares with his readers the vicissitudes of the companys fortunes, the personal lives of its owners, and the often touching correspondence he found among its business records. The author also informs us of the salaries, costs of doing business, and the unique demands of bookbinders for the companys products. The work ends with Edward Seymours valiant efforts to keep the company afloat in the early 1970's. This edition is published in the best tradition of the fine press book. It was typeset in hot metal, hand printed on 120 gpm, archival paper, and bound in quarter leather with a marbled slipcase by Manoutios Press of Athens, Greece.
