You are welcome to visit our new exhibition of American Decorated Publishers' Bindings, which is mostly up now, in case you find yourself near Hudson, New York during this summer. The exhibition will "officially" open in September, though there will likely be a preview reception in August. Send me an e-mail if you'd like to get a printed invitation. Send me a note if you'd like to come before then.
You can see installation

are on the pre-publication subscription page at

If you haven't seen the catalog
of the first collection, you likely can see it not too far from where you
are (maybe in your own library!). A list of 50 institutions in the USA,
Canada and the UK that have copies is at

The entire first collection of 500 designs and 60+ variants is now at the University of Alabama.
