The book ”Beautifully bound” is one of the treasures of my collection of Japanese Kinbaku material. Some time ago, I initiated a project with this book at its focus, and in the process I commissioned the texts it contains to be translated. As the intended project has somehow stalled, I decided to at least share the images and the translated texts with the readers of this blog in the form of a short Powerpoint-presentation. The translation is a somewhat rough draft. I hope you still find it useful.
