This brings back memories. Years ago, I did an apprenticeship at a manual bookbinder’s. On quiet days, I could help the bookbinder’s wife restore antique books. Loved every minute of it. Pity I couldn’t do restoration full-time, so I decided to become a teacher instead. Another way to spend time with books. 😉
