New Cloth Binding for Museum Album

This leather bound album from a Museum in Kentucky arrived in need of a new cover. The original leather binding was completely ruined from red rot and fire damage. The options were a new leather cover or a new cloth cover with inlay from the original binding. They opted for the cloth cover.

Moldy Heirloom Bindings Resurrected

I recently completed 3 heirloom bindings of the religious order. They had been stored in a box in a damp area for too long and were completely covered in mold in the text and the covers. I first disasembled the covers and went through the texts removing mold with a water and bleach combination. The two smaller books I had to put new cloth fine bindings on. The Bible I had to put a new full fine leather binding on. For more photos and information about my work please go to www.book-restoration.com
