Enlargement of Middleton's small stamp at the foot of the rear free endpaper. Because of the coarse surface on the handmade paper the initial B (inside the C) did not print clearly on the small stamp. Three examples of this stamp (with different dates) on designer bindings by Middleton at the Rochester Institute of Technology are stamped into the leather turn-ins on the rear pastedowns. However, since my binding had swede endpapers that were too rough to accept the stamp, Middleton stamped into the rear free endpaper.
