Also known as half- title. The extra page, in front of the title page, that bears the abbreviated title of the book. In the days when books were sold as unbound leaves, the half- title served as a “cover” for the protection of the true title page.

CJ grew up admiring books. His family owned a small bookstore throughout his early childhood, and he would spend weekends flipping through book after book, always sure to read the ones that looked the most interesting. Not much has changed since then, except now some of those interesting books he picks off the shelf were designed by his company!
