Long Description
A 1977 edition of "The Complete German Shepherd Dog" rebound in full calf, with hot blind-tooled covers, 18kt gold tooled spine, hand dyed calf leather, sprinkled edges, and marbled paper lined inside-covers, by the Little Wolf Bindery in Port Moody, BC, Canada. Little Wolf bindings are rare as the binder is highly selective. Headbands are handwound, with false raised bands on spine. The book is highly illustrated with many pictures of German Shepherd dogs but we are interested in the value of Little Wolf bindings.Â
