The Club Bindery (1898-1909) was an American fine book bindery started by several members of New York's Grolier Club in order to bring the art of fine bookbinding to America and to bind books to the standard of Europe's finest binderies.
From the library of bibliophile and long-standing Grolier Club member David Allen Fraser (1911-2003).
