Description
Triple cover board, Sobota’s binding structure. Leather-tooled double headbands. Silver multi-metallic top edge. Boards covered in dark blue paper made of leather-maché, light blue French calfbox, with the title in relief, gold tooling and application, and batique suede pigskin. Brass plate on spine engraved with the author’s name. Brass clasp on front edge engraved with the author’s portrait. Edges covered with gold leather. Doublures of batique suede pigskin. Fly leaves are light blue paper made of leather-mache. The design depicts the “fictitious” soul of the text and the illustrations, which the author also suggests in the title of the book.
