Bookbinding Instruction DVD - Restoring Family Bibles Rebinding

Description

In this volume of the Bookbinders Workshop Instructional Series, Master Bookbinder Michael Chrisman teaches how to beautifully restore a Family Bible of the late 1870s. These bibles are commonly found in American and English culture. All during the last half of the nineteenth century it was considered as the one book that every home must have in which to record important family records, such as marriage, birth and death dates. Today, over a hundred years later, thousands of these bibles still exist, and families regularly seek out book binders to restore them. Mr. Chrisman’s instruction will show you how to restore one of these bibles in a historically correct fashion, retaining all of the original components. Nearly FOUR HOURS of concise, forthright instruction! The entire step-by-step process is captured here on camera!
