DOING Book Make-Overs- yessss

The Perfect Book Binding Technique in paperback is dealt with in this instruction book. Recycling books is very important to me.Many books are not within the value range of professional restoration entities that use Vulpex, and document tape etc. This book is the Manual for fixing and saving books that have acid free paper. It is the best instruction book for preserving and adding value to the mainstream pulp that is churned out. I do my own custom book jackets with fancy papers. The tricks with paper shown in this book helped me create custom book jackets for books that are worthy of being recycled. I have been able to surpass the common commercial dust jacket by creating my own. Minus their advertising..I am not making my own books, I just used some of its knowledge for my own purposes.
