Item description from seller

This comprises text on six pages bound in brown wrappers and, demonstrating the key stages of bookbinding, using C.T. Jacobis Gesta Typographica (beautifully printed in black and red by the Chiswick Press) as a vehicle: 1) Unstitched signature; 2) Signatures stitched together; 3) Boards in place (one sewn on, the other marked for sewing); 4) Cords sewn on, edges trimmed and gilded; 5) Morocco selected and marked for cutting (one half scraped, the other left in its natural state); 6) Tissue design marked out and tools indicated.The completed book shows the tooling in gold on the front cover and in blind on the back. The spine has a mixture of both. The front end-paper is pasted down; the rear end-paper is flapped to show how this stage is completed. All contained in a slightly frayed green fitted buckram box lettered in gilt.Extremely uncommon - the edition must have been very small indeed. The first copy was made for permanent exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum. OCLC shows just two copies in the United States, COPAC none at all, but we are aware of the existence of four others as well as this copy and the V & A copy.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Bertram Rota Ltd, Kintbury, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of withdrawal

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
