    PIGSKIN * DURABLE ? FOR ECONOMICAL S 00 JCBI > ATTRACTIVE NDINC + ¦ ¦ . Copy of Letter from the Mitchell Library , Glasgow . Sth March , 1886 . Gektxemebt , —In answer to your inquiry as to the suitability o £ your ' . Pigskin Moroccos ' for bookbinding , I have much pleasure in stating that we have formed a highly favourable opinion of them . We have now bound some hundreds of volumes in this material , some of which , have been subjected to very severe wear and tear , for a period sufficiently long to test the leather . It gives promise of remarkable strength and durability ^ So far as we can judge , it will prove well fitted to withstand the trying air , hot and dry , which unfortunately exists in so many public libraries . It is handsome in appearance , some of the colours strikingly so , and some of the books are even tetter-looking after a year than when newly bound . I would stroqgly recommend librarians to make a trial Messrs of this . leather JOHl ^ . — MIXIR Yours faithfull SO 3 T y , BBITH * B . * ' Y' * A ** E TT > Librarian . * , , r . We respectfully solicit the attention of Bookbinders , also those in quest of a most durable covering for books of any sort , to the foregoing , and the cost is low .
