The Preservation Lab is gearing up to co-teach a Book Arts Course with Gary Weissman in the English Department, Spring 2020.  Jessica Ebert and I prepped for the closure session by securing these two books.  The idea of creating this sampler was borrowed, with permission, from our friend and fellow bookbinder Fran Kovac.

That’s a lot of security! From top to bottom – bone clasp, two hole tie, O ring wrap, toggle, and 6th century wrap (wrapped two directions so as to see the design).
