Welcome back to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast. This is the first in a series I decided to call Search Your Collection. Today I want to talk about Endsheets. Endsheets, also know as endpapers, or ends, are the pages at the beginning and of a hardcover book that are used to glue the inside pages (known as the book block) to the hardcover of the book. Decorated end sheets, while not very common in cookbooks are a relatively inexpensive enhancement to a cookbook. They have the ability to deliver helpful and useful information to the cookbook user, as well as a way to decorate and illustrate the cookbook. In today's episode, I discuss endpapers and take a look at endpapers as I searched my own collection of cookbooks.
