It was Pickering who introduced cloth to the world of bookbinding probably in 1820. "After this beginning Pickering followed the practice throughout his publishing career. He was afterwards imitated by other publishers but the smooth red magenta puce or dark blue cloth used by Pickering remained for many years the distinguishing mark of his books . The use of cloth as a publisher's binding made little difference to the cost of the books and was a considerable economy from the buyer's point of view since the book could be used without the necessity for rebinding . The innovation thus quietly made by Pickering in 1820 has had its effect on the whole subsequent history of the publishing trade" Keynes p. 14.
