Join the Delaware Art Museum’s Librarian and Archivist Rachael DiEleuterio and book collector Daphne Sawyer to learn about the Museum’s 4000+ volume collection of Decorative Book Bindings published from the 1830s to the 1930s. “Decorative” or “Publishers” Bindings refers to the elaborately embellished book bindings that were manufactured in quantity for publishers from the mid-19th to the early-20th centuries. The Museum’s collection was assembled solely for the outsides of the books, not the text inside!
