Photo gallery: Selections from the 'A Book by its Cover' exhibition

This ingenious dos-a-dos by Claudia Cohen is one book that holds two titles: Bookbinding Ephemera and Paper. Each work can be read front-to-back and back-to-front thanks to the accordion-fold binding. Cohen founded her own bindery in Massachusetts in 1983 and moved it to Seattle in 2003, where she continues to produce artist’s bindings and papers.
