Fanned out like a deck of cards, these pages show the soft, rounded wear that comes from years of thumbing and turning. The edges have gone grainy and uneven, and the paper has taken on the warm yellow-brown tone that aging gives to wood-pulp and rag stock alike. Close attention to the gutter and corners shows how a book's life of handling leaves its own record, one that rarely appears in the printed text itself.
