Hi!

I am a new member of this forum, and I joined because I'm interested in bookbinding.

I've collected older books for a while, but my main interest has always been the books of the eighteenth century. The gilding, the spine decorations, the way they look. Recently. I went to a bookbindery that uses eighteenth century techniques to bind and rebind books, and I fell in love. Unfortunately, they are on the other side of the country! How do I get into this hobby?

Yours sincerely,
Marianne
