Shakespeare's First Folio on Cow Rug / Cambridge Panel Details
I am currently working on a replica of Shakespeare's 1623 folio. Bound in calf leather, the cover features a Cambridge panel design (bound in the style of Paul Tronson, Master Bookbinder) with hot blind tooling. The leather was hand-dyed using a combination of vegetable dyes, aniline dyes and tattoo inks. The text block was sewn on recessed cords with hand-wound headbands and laced-in covers. An oxford hollow with false raised bands was used for the spine.
