Die Franklin Library, Pennsylvania
The Franklin Library was one of the largest and most sought-after publishers of fine leather-bound books from 1973 until their permanent closure in 2000. The Franklin Library 100 Greatest Books of All Time Series was produced between 1974 and 1982 and included 100 volumes bound in full leather with 22K gold leaf imprinting and sewn-in bookmarks. (The bookmark is the sign that the book is actually from this Series as Franklin Library also produced a lower tier set of 100 Greatest Books bound in “faux leather” without them.)
Der Verlag zu dieser amerikanischen Vorzugsausgabe
The book features premium hand-cut full leather boards with a distinct cover design in ornate 22-karat gold gild. The spine is hubbed with raised horizontal ridges formed in the leather. There are silk moire endpapers with a sewn in matching satin bookmark. The pages are gold gilded to protect against dust and moisture and the paper used is acid neutral to last generations without discoloring.
