Using a high power stamping press in 1849, Edmonds & Remnants heat stamped the very deep impressions of the elaborate wooden cover designed by Owen Jones for his illuminated and chromolithographed edition of Ecclesiastes entitled
The Preacher. This was probably the most elaborate Victorian bookbinding deeply stamped into wood in emulation of Gothic. While the covers were
created by a powerful fly embossing press, the book was bound by hand.
