Another meaning, in book jacket making, is that the art, real and
covering the whole jacket, spreads to the edges without framing.
As if whatever is pictured keeps going on beyond the jacket.
One cannot do a real bleeding edge jacket using an art picture or
having a composed picture created. It has to seem infinite
in extension. Sorta.
