Pickering 1796-1854 is remembered for "the introduction of cloth binding leading to the wider availability of books at lower prices 5 shillings per cloth volume as here; the publication of reputable editions of both standard and neglected works; and a close attention to book design which had a lasting influence" ODNB.
