Hardback. Condizione: Good. Paper ? Its Making, Merchanting and Usage (1955) by S. Carter Gilmour ? Sold by Crappy Old Books Before the digital age turned everything into pixels, paper was king?and Paper: Its Making, Merchanting and Usage is its quietly majestic chronicle. Published in 1955 under the watchful eye of The National Association of Paper Merchants, this delightfully earnest volume by S. Carter Gilmour takes readers deep into the fibres of an industry that once moved empires and inked history. From pulping and pressing to the complex art of merchanting (yes, that?s a thing), this book has it all?well, if your idea of ?all? includes grain direction, deckle edges, and warehouse logistics in post-war Britain. It?s a charmingly serious guide for those who sell, buy, or simply admire paper in all its glorious, crinkly forms. Condition: Slightly yellowed, faintly foxed, and still sturdier than your Wi-Fi signal. Smells faintly of must and mild disappointment?just how we like it. Crappy Old Books: Where yesterday?s specialist manuals are today?s oddly satisfying bedtime reads. Slightly warped, but not that noticable and could be flattened. Good binding and very reasonable dust jacket but is aged and has a few snags.
