After his apprenticeship at the British Museum Bindery (1940-1948), the author managed the famed Zaehnsdorff's bindery before opening his own bookbinding establishment. Bibliography. Beautifully illustrated with many full color binding photos. Bound in the original gilt-stamped brown cloth. From the dust jacket: "This is the autobiography of one of the world's leading book restorers, binding scholars, and international lecturers on book conservation and binding. It is also the very warm story of a gangly teenager's rise from his first position at the British Library's bindery to the pinnacle of his craft. This important work is not only this gifted craftsman's personal story - in RECOLLECTIONS the reader is treated to a unique insight into Britain's strict trade school; and indentured apprenticeship of the early first half of the 20th century. Originally published as a fine press book by Henry Morris on his renowned Bird & Bull Press, this edition has an expanded text with many additional historical illustrations. This edition also features forty-six colour and forty-six black and white photographs of Bernard Middleton's finest binding designs." 7.25" wide by 10.25" tall. First Edition (so stated). Hardcover.
