The Art of Making a Gryphon Book

The publication of a Gryphon Editions facsimile begins with the acquisition of an important edition of a classic work.

The interior of the original is faithfully reproduced, page by page. Our craftspeople reproduce a volume of uncommon quality and durability using methods employed for centuries. Every volume is fully bound in the best quality leather, or is quarter-leather bound with fine library buckram, and embellished with gold stamping of an original design. The raised bands across the spine are distinctive of the classic bookmaker's art. Colorful endleaves are reminiscent of fine Old World editions. Coordinating headbands grace both ends of the spine and add strength. The acid-free leaves are smyth-sewn; their edges are gilded for additional protection and elegance. A permanent satin ribbon marker ensures easy reference. For the discriminating collector, Gryphon Editions facsimiles enrich a home or office while providing a lifetime of intellectual stimulation.
