[Cancelled] Slotted Tape/Papercase Binding (Los Angeles, CA)

The slotted tape binding is a contemporary adaptation of the historic paper case binding, also known as the limp vellum binding, that was prominent throughout Europe during the late-Medieval period. In this binding, sections are sewn on supports that are laced through a limp or semi-limp cover to provide a simple and durable non-adhesive attachment. This structure is easily adaptable and can work well with as little as two sections or many more, making it an ideal structure for artists' books and/or sketchbooks.
