Thanks for sharing!
I've particularly enjoyed doing this series of bindings on this book. I'm currently out of copies but may be able to retrieve some from Dellas or Breon as the edition was a 3-way split in loose folios.
This binding received a fair amount of attention at the recent FPBA Manhattan show - thanks for letting me hold onto the book a bit longer to show it!
