Provenance
Pelham Olive Collection
The raised straps around the edge of the boards are most unusual, not being found on real books of the period. A related example also with raised ribs around the edges of the boards is illustrated by Leslie B Grigsby, The Longridge Collection (2000), fig.D394. English delftware books differ in construction, some with an open section at one end and others entirely enclosed save for a small hole.
