Description

Reid-Cunningham sees a darker America described in Huckleberry Finn. He will bind Huckleberry Finn in black calfskin boards and doublures, with graphite edges, black Bugra flyleaves, silk doublescore endbands, and gold and blind tooling and titling. Blind-tooled dots in a long meandering pattern leading from a single gold dot to another delineate Huck's passage through the dark heart of the story.
