Before the advent of dust-jackets many books, especially those for children, were bound in brightly coloured cloth with pictorial blocking in gold and other striking colours.

This foiled notebook features a colourful 19th- and 20th-century bookshelf design, with jolly book titles all taken from the Bodleian Libraries collection.  Combining high-quality production with magnificent fine art, the hardback notebook cover has been printed on foil in five colours, embossed then foil stamped.
