Report by Ruth Grannis on a February exhibition at the Grolier Club, seen by the Needle and Bobbin Club, of jeweled, metal and embroidered bookbindings. It describes early silver and enamel bindings from the ninth to fourteenth centuries and openwork silver bindings of the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. It then discusses English embroidered bindings of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries on canvas, velvet, silk and satin, including the Bible of King Charles I and a velvet binding for Marie de Medici. Photographs show several of the bindings, and the scan ends with a short poem, 'Lace Maker's Song'.
