Examples

Custom made slipcases are available in a variety of materials. Slipcases
will protect your favorite books from dust and sun damage.
They are often requested for books in 2 volume sets, or for larger format softcover books |

Rebacking of books can repair broken, damaged and even disconnected spines.
Damaged corners and broken hinges can also be easily repaired. Having a childhood favorite or a
much used reference book rebacked will keep it whole and will provide years of additional use. |

|
|
Recasing a book completely replaces the original cover with all new
materials, including new endpapers. Even the most worn and damaged book can be rescued for
years of further use and enjoyment! |
