Case Bindings:
Book cloth
was developed in the 1820s as a new covering
material to decrease the cost of production.
Rather than using leather as a covering
material and attaching boards by the
use of cords, the development of case
binding allowed for faster production
by preparing the covers of the book separately
from the textblock. There are many case
binding styles and structures, which
make unique and elegant books.
