Yeah, that alone makes me think these documents are reproductions, used for educational purposes

@Nicholas Mangialardi It is actually fairly common for modern conservators and researchers not to use gloves when handling old books and documents, but rather preferring to just use well washed and dry hands.
The reason for this is that gloves reduce sensitivity and add bulk to the hands, making them more clumsy, and as old paper tend to become brittle, the risk of tearing the paper is seen as a more immediate and serious issue.
Of course, gloves are still used in some cases, books may have been treated with pesticides that can be harmful, and there are some materials that are more sensitive and so even clean hands can pose an issue.

Rebecca Henderson
August 16, 2022 at 2:20 am
@Andy Altman Well, that doesn’t stop mooks from touching their face, ears, nose, mouth or hair and getting oil on the docs. It seems that they’d be trained on how to handle the tactile difference. I don’t believe washing hands is sufficient with irreplaceable objects.
Nicholas Mangialardi
August 14, 2022 at 4:33 pm
The way he handled the documents bare-handed leaves me to believe that these are reproductions, used for the educational purposes of the video
Andrew Hunt
August 14, 2022 at 8:30 pm
Handling them with (clean) bare hands is the correct way to do it. They were handled with bare hands for hundreds of years.

Andy Altman
August 15, 2022 at 7:57 pm
I had the same thought when I was there! It turns out common practice is just to wash and dry your hands before handling documents like this, because you lose some tactile sensation with gloves and are at more risk of damaging the pages.

Those are Chinese writing not Korean fonts, you need to do your research thoroughly before making video like these.

Korean people used Chinese characters before Korean alphabet. Same with Vietnamese, Japanese and other smaller asian coutries. You don’t say English books are phoenician or latin. The writing system and language is a totally different thing.

I would hardly call any bible a valuable document. Another reason why I joined the freedom from religion foundation. If they can learn how these were made, etc—great. The content of these bibles is literary garbage, pornographic, genocide loving, murderous, war promoting, incestuous. the Bible is a horrible book. I would never let any person under the age 18 to read it. Ban the Bible from school libraries now! You want your children reading stories about LOT having incest with this daughters? EWWWWW!

Why don’t they use gloves when handling such old and historically valuable documents? It doesn’t matter how clean your hands are, you always leave traces behind when you touch something! ????????

“Emerging evidence” of earlier movable type printing than Gutenberg? Get real. This has been known since before Melvin McGovern’s 1966 tome, ‘Specimen Pages of Korean Movable Type’.
