Target 7 Conservation

Great candidate for my conservation services. Kept it simple and structural via client's request. Front cover split at 1/3rd off the bottom. Spine almost de-tached, hanging on in a couple of places. Needed to clean, press cover very carefully under humidification to relax all folds and small flaps so that paper could be prepared for mending. Spine mended using thin Japanese tissue and archival adhesive for structural support. Edge tears mended using heat set tissue which imbues itself onto the interior of cover. Large tear across cover mended using stronger Japanese tissue and archival adhesive to sustain hold and prevent any warping. Interior pages very warped and creased at top right edge. Paper was a bit dry and fragile so once each page was indivicually pressed and spine roll removed, interior was de-acidified so that acid deterioration will now be at rest. NO COLOR TOUCH on cover. Restored cover re-assembled using original staples and book pressed intact. Beautiful artwork, beautiful colors, stable, secure, happy for retirement!

Nice book, supple and off white pages. Weak spine but able to sustain a thorough pressing. All creases and dings removed from egdes and back of cover cleaned up nicely. ST 110 was a rag but I was able to clean and press it out nicely. Solid book with nice pages, cover redeemed itself.
