Detail | Here is an imperfect transcription of the story of the bookbindings of Francis Sangorski and the firm of Sangorski and Sutcliffe. This is the document in pdf form that was sent to me by the family. It is rather difficult to read. Here are some links about the firm and their greatest production The Great Omar, which famously went down on the Titanic. |
