In 1957, Norman Ofslager took 20 Music Treasures of the World booklets and hand-bound them beautifully into a hardcover book. He also created an ingenious table of contents in his own meticulous handlettering, which he printed and bound into the book (see picture above). I know all this because on the inside back cover it is written: "Handbound by Norman Ofslager 1957." Thank you, Norman, whoever you are!

Norman Ofslager was my Great Uncle. I found this posting while Googling his name. Can you give me anymore information on this book? It would be interesting to see it. Thank you, Valerie
