Boston Harbor Bookbindery

Playing with some silver and gold tooling today. This is a draft design for an upcoming project. So far so good!

“…The same paper, identical printing. Isn’t it a wonder?” A. Pérez-Reverte, The Club Dumas.

Another happy client! This project was especially impactful for me because I own another copy of the exact book (same edition, same printing). It was surreal to see and such a how to work on. Thankfully, since I’d done it before and my client wanted the same design, I was able to make some improvements. Enjoy!

Just a sneak peak 😁
Working on the finishing and decoration today. Final pictures coming soon
