More nice documents from the Paul Mauser Book
Dear All,
We have received some others nice images from the production.
They are photos taken during the production activity, therefore the quality is not excellent but good enough to describe the documents.
The first photo is related to the Cover for the Deluxe Edition. It is leather made with gold foil stamping. The design is the same as the Standard edition and we already pointed out that the drawing is a new, unpublished sear safety mechanism designed by Paul Mauser himself on the 5th of May, 1905.
The second photo is related to the internal binding paper. For this, we selected the most iconic C96 blue print in the Archive. This is a 1:1 blueprint drawn by Friedrich Doll on the 30th of March 1896. The blue print is signed by Doll and stamped with a Mauser stamp. Doll was one of the most strict collaborator of Paul Mauser and you will discover him reading the book.
The third photo is related to the first page. For this page we selected a very spectacular Mauser Display. It is a positive from an original Glass Plate negative in the Archive.
As you can see, already the cover, the binding paper and the first page are providing very nice and unique documents but you will discover hundreds in the book.
I hope you enjoy.
Best Regards,
Mauro
