white spot
A technique used in coloring the edges of a book.
Drops of melted wax are spattered on the edges,
which are then colored in the usual manner. When
the wax is removed, the edges appear to be colored
with white spots. The pattern may be varied by
using two or three colors, or by sprinkling the
edges before the wax is applied and then again
after it is removed. (241 )
