This superb binding is signed Jakob Baden. His binding appear almost exclusively in in Danish antiquarian bookseller's catalogues. This is an exquisite example, and in many repsects outshines the actual book that is bound. Contained in a custom marbled board slipcase. Would make a superb gift to anyone who enjoys this artist, this author or fine bindings.
