Franjevačka Biblija / Franciscan Bible: Part 1

Franciscan Bible  (Croatian Edition)

Publishers: Naša ognjišta, Hrvatski biblijsko društvo i Kršćanska sadašnjost

 


Size: 17 x 25 cm, 
Number of pages: 1673
Binding: Softcover Imitation leather 
Color: Burgundy


 

The Bible comes wrapped in plastic.

 

Cover of the book is made of  artificial material that imitates leather.

 


Visually it is not quite noticeable ... 

 

but when you touch the covers....

 

you can not avoid  rubbery, artificial feel.


Golden edges and imprints on front cover and the spine  .... 


give this book a nice quality touch.


Inside look reveals plasticized end-paper.


Paste-down end-sheet is glued 


in a way that overlaps the edges of cover material.


It is a good book design practice but ...


the traces of poor craftsmenship are inevitable.


Besides minor  aesthetics, the Bible is very well built ...


durable and easy to hold in your hand.



To be continued ...
