The front cover of a 19th century ledger. The leather is suede with blind tooled lines. Two repairs to the cover are visible.
My toned tissue & paste mend on the corner and an original mend top center. I can tell the original mend is contemporary with the binding because the tooling lines go across the break in the leather. #conservationispy #bookconservation #bookbinding #blindtooling
