Sanborn 1902
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from Mohawk Superfine American- made, archival paper, sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that dates back to the ancient Copts. This allows the book to lay open easily to any page.
This book’s endbands are blue and white cotton, and its bookmark is blue kidskin. The book is half-leathered in blue, and its boards are wrapped in detail from the 1902 Sanborn Insurance maps of Downtown Muncie, Indiana from the Library of Congress.
Treasure binding began with monks in the 6th Century who would encrust volumes with jewels. During the Renaissance, there was a resurgence in treasure binding. This is a contemporary revival of the treasure binding in which a lucky charm has been embedded in the cover of this book.
The talisman in this book is a working compass. From Middletown, you can go in any direction, but it’s often best to stay put.
This book is roughly 6 x 9” with more than 150 blank pages.
