2010135130Ann Arbor MI: Legacy Press 2010; 8vo. full leather clamshell box; 528 pages 374 illustrations. <br /><br /><i>Books Will Speak Plain</i> is published at a time when the historical book is at risk of being ignored put away and forgotten. This handbook combines an overview of the history of the codex with basic information about many of the materials and structures found on historical bindings. The book also includes description-survey guidelines and is supported by a variety of appendices. The book's focus on primarily non-luxury bindings adds depth to an often-neglected segment of the history of bookbinding. <br /><br /> This copy is signed by the author and bound in a full artist-binding by Don Etherington bookbinder and former director of Conservation at both the Library of Congress and the Harry Ransom Center Austin TX. Both covers have been bound in a full crushed moracco binding with leather onlays. The onlays have been stamped in blind using fleuron tooling patterns and the front cover has the title of the book in the center stamped in gilt. The pastedowns and endpapers are created using handmade decorated pastepapers. Handmade silk headbands. Top edge stained silver. Signed by the binder on the rear pastedown. The book is housed in a custom cloth-covered boards clamshell box with a leather spine label with the author and title stamped in gilt. <br /><br /> Preservation is at the heart of <i>Books Will Speak Plain</i>. We have already lost too many historical bindings because their importance was not understood and appreciated. This book is a call to action to urge custodians of every kind of historical book collection public and private to assess the physical character of the historical bindings in their care and record the changes that have accrued to those bindings during their passage through time. <br /><br /> This book is a resource that can be used to recognize binding variations that have long been overlooked and to document such bindings for future scholars. All bibliophiles including book-binders curators private collectors librarians catalogers antiquarian book-sellers scholars of the book and conservators will find this an invaluable reference. <i>Books Will Speak Plain</i> is also a useful textbook for students enrolled in academic courses in the history of the book and book conservation and in practical bookbinding. <br /><br />Photography: J.

19300010022Asheville North Carolina. Good. 1930-1931. Hardcover. On offer is a small journal detailing the last year in the life of Otis Alonzo Miller a professor and landscape painter and possibly a developer from the American South. This diary offers a detailed glimpse into the day-to-day happenings of Millers final year. The journal entries are brief often only two or three lines. Miller notes the weather and the principal things he was engaged in during the day. Many entries relate to his painting. "Lovely day. I kept to my room & touched up a couple of paintings." December 4 1931 "Snowed. President Hoover came to town to visit his son." March 8 1930 "Cool and clear. I painted steadily. Mr. White from Palmer Life store came to see my paintings about 5." April 29 1931 "Hot enough. I sat in my room and am 83 years old today. Went with Mabel to Lamberts at 3. Maude came to see me in time for dinner." July 14 1931 "Warm. I am sick. Played out. Bad night. Maude called at 3." October 7 1931 On the last page he makes a notation about paintings that he has given to the children in his family. Miller was born in Lawrenceburg Indiana on July 14 1848 and passed away at the age of 83 on December 19 1931 in Asheville North Carolina. In researching Miller we discovered a 1911 ad in the Roanoke VA Evening News publicizing the sale and exhibit of Millers "High Class Oil Paintings." He painted right up until his death. Our research also suggests that before moving to North Carolina Miller may have been a noted real estate developer in Knoxville TN responsible for what is known as O. A. Millers South Side Addition. In her book Skyland and Its Founder author Sandra Samz credits an Otis A. Miller for developing Skyland an area of southern Buncombe County in North Carolina. More research is needed before we can confirm that these O. A. Millers are one in the same. Measuring 5.75 inches by 3.75 inches this small journal contains 100 pages and is 100 percent complete. Written in an ordinary lined notebook the hard cover and binding are both in good condition. There is some age staining on the insides of the cover and on the pages which are in otherwise good condition. The handwriting is quite legible. This journal begins on October 3 1930 and continues until October 30 1931 about six weeks before Millers death. ; Manuscripts; 5.75" x 3.75"; 100 pages; Otis Alonzo Miller; Asheville NC; 20th Century American Painters; 20th century American art; American landscape painting; American oil painting; American art; 20th century art; art history; American art history; American South; Southern art; Southern landscape art; Old Buncombe County; Buncombe County; Biltmore; North Carolina; genealogy; Skyland; city planning; Knoxville city planning; history of Knoxville; Knoxville TN; Tennessee; Millers South Side Addition; history of North Carolina; history of Knoxville; history of Tennessee; land development; land development in the South; real estate development; AMERICANA; HANDWRITTEN; MANUSCRIPT; DOCUMENT; LETTER; AUTOGRAPH; WRITER; HAND WRITTEN; DOCUMENTS; SIGNED; LETTERS; MANUSCRIPTS; DIARY; DIARIES; JOURNALS; PERSONAL HISTORY; SOCIAL HISTORY; HISTORICAL; HOLOGRAPH; WRITERS; AUTOGRAPHS; PERSONAL; MEMOIR; MEMORIAL; ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT; VÉLIN; DOCUMENT; MANUSCRIT; PAPIER ANTIKE; BRIEF; PERGAMENT; DOKUMENT; MANUSKRIPT; PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO; ATTO; VELINA; DOCUMENTO; MANOSCRITTO; CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD; HECHO; VITELA; DOCUMENTO; MANUSCRITO; PAPEL . hardcover
