When leather bindings break at the joint, the traditional approach is to reback the binding with leather, re-hanging the boards and relining the spine. However, there are times when this is not feasible.
I recent years, conservator Don Etherington and other have pioneered simple, non-invasive repairs using Japanese tissue. This demonstration by Dominic, covers these techniques.
Also includes a slide show of the prize winning bindings from the Society of Bookbinder International Bookbinding competition 2005
