This book features miniature designer bindings from the collection of Neal M. Albert. Containing more than 7,000 color illustrations, the book covers all styles of bindings, including traditional, variations, geometric, abstract, representational, gems, flora and fauna, lettering, diminutive, and experimental. The designer, year, dimensions, and a small description accompany the photos of each listed binding. Including opening essays by Patricia Juvelis and Neale M. Albert, this catalogue reflects an entire world of fine bindings. Although small in size, these bindings showcase great exuberance and elegance. Published to accompany a 2006 exhibition at the Grolier Club.
