Description
This polychrome tan calf is a Patent Stereographic Binding, registered by William McAdam and created by Anthony L. Harrison in this same year. It features colored stampings by inked wooden blocks, producing the appearance of leather onlays. It is quite imaginative, contrasting favorably with the average commercial binding of the era.
