| BINDING TERM | Bradel: A type of binding that originated in Germany with the shop of Alexis Pierre Bradel. Characterized by a hollow back, similar to a library binding, and generally having split boards that were attached to the text block by a cloth spine lining. Many bindings "a la Bradel" are quarter bound with cloth or leather spine and paper sides. |
| DECORATION | Front and back boards have simple frame of gold lines, spine has eight gold lines and five rosettes, with gold tooled title. Turn-ins are gold tooled. Silk endleaves. |
| REPAIRS | |
| COVER material/hardware, etc, corner style/turn ins, repairs | Full red goat with gold tooling, untrimmed turn ins, overlapped corners. Hollow back, no bands. |
| BOARDS material, back cornering | Rigid boards, no shaping, no back cornering. |
| SPINE rounding/ backing lining | Rounded and backed, lining of printer's waste. |
| ENDBANDS style, material/color, core material | Pink, blue, and white silk endbands with a front bead over a cord core. |
| SEWING style, # stations, support material lacing in | Sewing is not visible except at endpapers: endpapers sewn all along over five supports which are adhered under paste down. |
| ENDPAPERS material, # of flyleaves/attachment | Blue silk pastedown and conjugate made flyleaf, two plain cream (3) medium (2) moderately textured (2) laid paper flyleaves. |
| TEXT BLOCK material, edge treatment | Cream (3) medium (1) moderately textured (3) handmade laid paper. Edges gilt. |

Cambridge
"Books bound in this style were sewn on raised cords, covered in calfskin that was masked and sprinkled in such a manner as to leave a stained central rectangular panel, a plain rectangular frame, which, in turn, was surrounded by a stained outside frame. The books had Dutchmarble endpapers and red edges. The spine was pieced with red russia leather labels and had double blind lines at head and tail on each side of the raised bands. The covers were decoratedw ith a two-line fillet close to the edges and on each side of the panel. and with a narrow flower roll worked on each side of the panel close to the lines. There were many variations of this style,including some books tooled in gold, and some with marbled covers and sprinkled panels." [4]

"A style of embellishment of leather bindingsintroduced in France in the 18th century. Theborder in use in the 17th century was enlargeduntil it became the predominant element of thedesign, so much so that often only space for anarmorial shield was left. Edges, which formerlyhad been straight, were now tooled in a wavypattern, thus giving a "lacy" effect at timesdescribed as "à la dentelle," but actuallylooking more like the wrought ironwork of fancybalconies and gates. The style was very popularand was used by many bookbinders and gilders.including the Derome family and Pierre-PaulDubisson, who used metal plates instead of tools,so as to be able to block the design and thusincrease production. " [9]
