A propos de cet article

Publication: London, Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons, Ltd., c. 1930 Formatting: 8vo, pagination not stated. Condition Report: Very Good. The original publisher's green cloth binding is remarkably well-preserved with clean boards, though the extremities display slight bumping and minor shelf-wear typical of its age. The spine remains tight and square with perfectly legible black lettering. Internally, the text block edges are tanned and display moderate foxing, which occasionally permeates into the extreme margins of the otherwise bright pages. A faint previous ownership signature is present in pencil to the front endpaper. The binding remains entirely firm and sound throughout. Catalogue Note: This is the Third Edition of H. A. Maddox's detailed guide to paper production, issued as part of Pitman's esteemed Common Commodities and Industries series. Complete with its original frontispiece illustrating early paper-making machinery, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of early twentieth-century manufacturing techniques. It is uncommon to find these utilitarian trade guides in such tightly bound, clean condition, as they were often heavily handled in reference libraries or practical workshops. A fascinating window into the early twentieth-century paper trade, Maddox’s comprehensive guide details the history, sources, and manufacturing processes of one of the world's most essential materials. Originally published as part of Pitman’s Common Commodities and Industries series, this text explores everything from raw materials and traditional hand-making techniques to the evolution of industrial machinery and commercial mass production. It remains an invaluable reference for bibliophiles, historians of technology, and anyone curious about the foundational material of the written word.…
