Something for the weekend: we thought this brocade paper was suitable as many in the rare book world are soon to fly off to the New York book fair. 🐦🐦🐦 Used here as endpapers on a French manuscript, Recueil de chansons (1790s).

Happy New Year! Our first find of 2020: brocade paper endpapers on a copy of Les Pseaumes de David (Geneva, 1755) featuring images of saints. It was interesting to find this example used in a binding, as opposed to a full sheet.
