  Richard Cobden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cobden was thus relegated to private life, and retiring to his country house at Dunford, he spent his time in perfect contentment in cultivating his land and feeding his pigs.
Cobden had married in 1840 Miss Catherine Anne Williams, a Welsh lady, and left five surviving daughters, of whom Mrs Cobden-Unwin (wife of the publisher Mr Fisher Unwin), Mrs Walter Sickert (wife of the painter) and Mrs.
Cobden, and what is was called "Cobdenism" and later identified with laissez-faire, was subjected to much criticism from the school of English economists who advocated a national policy, on the ideas of Alexander Hamilton and Friedrich List.

The bindery was established in 1893 at The Mall, Hammersmith, London, and Cobden-Sanderson took on four employees; although he had already made approximately 200 books himself, the bindery produced more than 1000 to his designs.
Its success was due mainly to his bookseller, J. Bain, one of whose most important customers was Lemuell W. Bangs, the London agent for Charles Scribner in New York.
Bangs monopolized the bindery’s output for a while; this established Cobden-Sanderson’s reputation in the USA and led to numerous commissions.

 Encadernação
os antigos gregos e romanos costumavam envolvê-los em capas de pele ou pano ou, em se tratando de obras mais valiosas, em bibliotecas, (biblio + theka, cofre para livros), ou seja, cilindros de madeira, pedra ou metal onde se acomodavam vários rolos (ao lado).
O passo seguinte foi prender a essas tabuletas as pontas das tiras que prendiam os cadernos, a seguir cobrindo com couro as tabuletas ao mesmo tempo que o dorso, criando-se assim a lombada.
No século X, com a escrita e a feitura do livro basicamente restritas aos mosteiros, uma ornamentação austera substitui as pesadas capas de metal e marfim.

Like William Morris of the Kelmscott press before him and T. Cobsen-Sanderson of the Doves Press after him, Ricketts designed his own fonts and had them cut by Edward Prince.
In addition to the fonts of the Kelmscott, Doves, and Vale Presses, Prince also cut the Brook font for the Eragny press, the Endeavor font for Essex House, and the Subiaco type for Ashendene.
After a final bibliography of the press in 1904 (the only item printed after this book), Ricketts tossed all his type and the matrices used for casting the type into the river Thames (over a decade later T. Cobden-Sanderson did the same with the Doves type).

 From Our President   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The craft of bookbinding has a long and noble history; think of the famous past binders: Roger Payne, T J Cobden-Sanderson, Sybil Pye, George Fisher, Thomas Harrison, William Matthews, Edgar Mansfield and many others.
Early embroidered bindings are an example of this and, of course, since William Morris and the Arts and Crafts Movement, the two disciplines of the ‘Trade’ binder and the ‘Arts and Crafts’; binder have run parallel for a hundred years.
Often, the two disciplines crossed over; T J Cobden-Sanderson, The Cockerells and Roger Powell all employed binders who were trade trained and, of course, Edgar Mansfield (that most ‘un-trade’ binder) taught for many years at the London College of Printing (that most ‘trade’ College).

 Etherington & Roberts. Dictionary--zig-zag endpaper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
A type of ENDPAPER devised by either Douglas Cockerell or T. Cobden-Sanderson toward the end of the 19th century.
The zig-zag endpaper is designed to eliminate drag on the fly leaves and text block, some thing usually accomplished by sewing the endpaper below the gusset so that it can expand with the movement of the board as the book is opened.
If the endpaper is sewn through both the fly leaves and the made endpaper, which is the usual practice, the advantage of flexibility is negated and drag results, which the endpaper was intended to eliminate.

 The Arion Press Lectern Bible
Its type, cut by Edward Prince for the partners of the press, T. Cobden-Sanderson and Emery Walker, is a successful reinterpretation of Jenson's roman of the fifteenth century, and the initial letters cut by Edward Johnston are glorious.
The form "Jehovah" is of late medieval origin; it is a combination of the consonants of the Divine Name and the vowels attached to it by the Masoretes but belonging to an entirely different word.
Although the American Standard Version (1901) had used "Jehovah" to render the Tetragrammaton (the sound of Y being represented by J and the sound of W by V, as in Latin), for two reasons the Committees that produced the RSV and the NRSV returned to the more familiar usage of the King James Version.
