A Collection of 18th-Century Decorated Papers and Paper Bindings
Title:
Account Book Wrapper
Author:
Imprint Date:
1656
Publishing Colophon:
Binding:
Paste-colored sheet with manuscript paper label, previously used as a wrapper
Paper:
Crimson brushed paste paper
Collector's Notes:
The manuscript label reads “Reuthambts Rechnung pro Martinj a[nn]o 1656“. Previous use as a wrapper is further evidenced by “pastedowns” lining each half of the sheet verso with a gap for the original textblock spine. This object is remarkably similar to the one reproduced, albeit in black and white, in Heijbroek/Greven, p. 11.
