I think that is kind of 'powder' used in printing shops when they're in a hurry, binding books when printing ink is not 100% dry.

all the best,

This is my experience with printing. This press dust ensures the pages do not stick together, and the same for the covers as they are printed. This for speed or to compensate for natural high humidity.

Re: New Book: Project Me 262 - Tagesbuch des Testpiloten

Thanks for the info.

And indeed I rather have these grains than ink pressing through to other pages, something I have seen in quite a number of quality publications.

btw

Project Me 262 is a large format book with dustwrapper, unlike the other NeunundzwanzigSechs books. There is a nice balance between text and photos.

A must for any Me 262 fan
