Book is about 4 inches thick & weighs a little under 8 lbs. This is an amazing book with tons of samples of different cuts, decorative borders, font samples, printing equipment, brass borders way to much to list. I could post a 100 pictures as i was enthralled with this book for at least 2 hours. I would ask for alot more but the spine has some damage, all the pages are still attached "no loose ones".
It got wet at some point in its long life and it swelled up some. Someone cut a few chunks out of about 5 pages, probably back when people were still doing paste up in the 70's.
