Anton Henley Bookbinder The Eddington Bindery Hungerford Berkshire

Brunel College Bristol Yate South Gloucestershire

 

Welcome to the bookbinding section of my site. I hope you enjoy the images of a selection of bindings from the last thirty years.

I began bookbinding in August 1977 as an apprenticed bookbinder, to The Eddington Bindery, Hungerford, Berkshire (thank you all),

at the grand old age of sixteen. At this time my future was already cast in stone, a devout hippy and not content with that, a drummer too.

In 1977 the prospect of a five year apprenticeship seamed an eternity to endure! alas, thirty plus years have passed somewhat quicker than I'd

anticipated five would!
