Abstract

This article studies the parchment bindings with artistic elements that belonged to Francisco Guerra´s collection. The constructive structures, materials used, decorative structures of the sides and the spines, the painted endpaper and the heraldic emblems of several bindings studying their origins it´s also analyzed, identifiying, in some cases, the bookbinder as happens with the works of Brugalla, Vera, Menard and Arias y Ginesta. We finally do an inventory of tailpieces, gilding rolls and plates used in each binding.
