This workshop will introduce techniques for constructing book blocks for a Japanese Album, a Japanese Butterfly book, and a drum leaf binding which all have similar and ingenious modes of assembly. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter learning these structures, participants will case-in their drum leaf book blocks with easily assembled quarter-cloth covers with throw-back spines. Since each page spread is a single folded folio, images can be printed across the gutter with no interruption, making this structure popular with printmakers and photographers. Once completed, these books lie flat when opened, making them easy and comfortable to view.
