VICTORIAN PUBLISHER’S BINDINGS

Advances in printing technology and the development of cloth covers made it possible for Victorian book publishers to issue limited editions of popular titles with ornate cover decoration. The elaborate designs were mechanically stamped on colored fabric and the lettering often embossed and gilded. Packaged in a velvet-lined slip cover, these gift books were intended more for display than actual perusal. For daily reading materials, Victorians of all classes borrowed books from private lending libraries.
