After a while I realized that the Club Bindery was in fact a business not a “club” as we normally understand the term, and far from being Fine binding in America, its really the history of the operations of the Club Bindery. Alas, I will never be part of the “club” who could use its services.
Bookbinding in Lockdown
Ahhhh. The Lockdown version 4,5,6. What to do? Embark on those projects that don't do well in fits and starts but need dedicated time. Let me see what I will choose.
Reliable Poultry Journal 38 volumes 1894 to 1931. Volumes 2-11 are ok just need cleaning, Volumes 31-38 need new hinge reinforcement. All the rest need rebinding.
The good the bad and the ugly.
