| | ID: | 537 | | Title: | The Guild of Book Workers | http://palimpsest.stanford.edu/byorg/gbw/ | | Pagerank: | 7 | | Description: | The Guild of Book Workers was founded in 1906 to "establish and maintain a feeling of kinship and mutual interest among workers in the several hand book crafts." Among its early members are well-known artist-craft workers such as bookbinder Edith Diehl and printers and typographers W.A. Dwiggins and Frederic W. Goudy.
The Guild still believes, as did its founders, that there is a responsibility among civilized people to sustain the crafts involved with the production of fine books. Its members hope to broaden public awareness of the hand book arts, to stimulate commissions of fine bindings, and to stress the need for sound book conservation and restoration. | | Category: | Book Care: United States | | Link Owner: | webmaster | | Date Added: | September 19, 2007 08:09:10 PM | | Number Hits: | 1 | | Alexa Traffic: | | | |
