<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonZ, post: 365009, member: 7623&quot;]Hi, I hope I&#039;m posting this in the appropriate forum. I&#039;ve been thinking of adding a manuscript edition or two to my small-but-growing collection of books by my favorite historic authors. During my browsing, I&#039;ve noticed that there can sometimes be a wide range of bindings when it comes to copies of a particular manuscript edition of a book (or volume of books), everything from eloquent leather-bound covers with gilt lettering, to more &quot;mundane&quot; cloth covers with minimal decoration and markings other than the title on the spine. (And of course there is a corresponding difference in price between the various levels of bindings.) Can anyone tell me if this was a common thing for early-1900&#039;s publishers to do with manuscript editions? Thanks for any insight![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
