“ The third style inaugurated in England by Mearne may be called the all over style as the design is repeated until the boards of the book are covered more or less all over The style is generally supposed to have originated with Le Gascon, a great French binder who invented the method of scoring binder's tools across at right angles to their right lines with the result that the impression made from them has a dotted effect.

This dotted work appears plentifully on many of Mearne's stamps Le Gascon's all over designs consist of an intertwined fillet in the interstices of which are impressed close masses of fine gold tooling. Mearne adopted this style almost exactly and evidently admired it much but he very shortly evolved from it a style particularly his own. He substituted a line of separately impressed curved stamps in the place of Le Gascon's continuous fillet and filled his spaces with much larger and more boldly designed stamps.
