Practical bookbinding : a text-book intended for those who take up the art of bookbinding, and designed to give sufficient help to enable handy persons to bind their books and periodicals . to make theirearly attempts at binding upon a small rather thana large book. For this purpose the size should notexceed 7J ins. long, 5 ins. wide, and the total thick-ness should not be more than 1 in. After stripping off the outside cover, remove anypages of advertisements that are printed on separatesheets from the leaves of the book itself. The noviceis advised to note that in many modern publicationsthere is a tendency among publishers to so arrange theadvertisements on the sheets that, in binding, thesesheets must either be included in the book or cutinto two parts. If the latter method be resortedto, it is necessary, to guard the divided sheets inthe way described in the next chapter. It may beconvenient here to explain the following technicalexpressions used to denote parts of the book. Back—the outside of the folded section, or wherethe name of the book is lettered in after covering. Head—the top of the sections. Tail—the bottom of the sections. PRACTICAL BOOKBINDING. 13. Fig. 1.
