Coloured prints also need to be tackled with great care.
As does pages with missing or dilapidated edges.

By understanding and re-developing the lost "Art of Bookbinding" using hand made materials, original formulae and the traditional skills of the past Master Craftsmen, Period Fine Bindings can restore terminally damaged books to their original condition.
