Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This structure is sewn all along the signature and looped around a cord. A single hole is punctured in the folio allowing the thread to be sewn around the exterior cord and back through the same hole. This traditional binding structure is typically in leather bindings where the raised cord can be seen on the spine of the book and is an extremely durable structure.
