Note: Susan made this book
from a scrap of leather. The text block (not visible) is installed using
screw posts. Susan says it reminds her of overalls. It reminds me of a
monk's girdle book.

I made this book for use as a
day journal. The leather has a very heavy feel to it and each pair of
signatures has a separate hole pattern (not visible in photo). The lion on
the front is a miniature door knocker that I screwed into the leather. |

Pagliosotti)
Note: This is an accordion
book. The top two pictures are the front and back and the bottom picture
is the inside. The nude woman on the front and back is actually a cigar
band type thing that slides over the book to keep it closed. Wonderful
idea!
**
Warning** This book contains tasteful nudes. Look at the larger
pictures knowing full well that your head may explode if that type of
thing offends you. |
