Sowers said "Our work is all
done by hand." "First we exa
mine 'the old volumes to deter
mine, how much repair is neces
sarly. The deteriorated leather
is stripped off, and the covers
are removed. Sometimes we
strip down to the pages which
often have to be repaired indi
vidually. We use a permanent
mending tape for each tear. Then
the pages are resowed; new boa
rds and end sheets, new spines
and new leather are added and
finally we put on a tough and
durable Dupont plantic-coated
.fabrikoid The books are then
lettered and custom fit canvas
covers complete the job.
"Constant use over many years
get the book covers out of line,
this allows the air and moisture
to get to the pages. Old acids in
the paper -are activated and will
deteriorate the pages. These dis
colorations along the margin of
the pages are not so much dirt
as the beginning of acid deterio
ration The paper gets brittle and
will fade and crack."
