Bookbinding Services

This process is ideal for high-value irreplaceable volumes. Attention to detail is demanded to return both structural integrity and an aesthetic original appearance.

Traditional Fine Binding

From medieval facsimiles to decorative half-leather bindings, we can reproduce a binding to reflect the period of publication. Modern books can also be made elegant by binding in a traditional way.

Book Rebinding

Besides being able to emboss title information in gold, silver and multiple colors, it is possible to reproduce your artwork into metal dies to emboss the cover of your book. Let your imagination be your guide!

Map & Print

Most old documents in need of conservation require several treatments. Washing, de-acidification, light bleaching, repair, in-fills, flattening, backing, and encapsulation. Each object, paper or vellum, is carefully examined and discussed before conservation.

Happy Customers

"Excellent work! Scott restored an old Bible for me and it turned out beautiful! Would return to his services for any future book binding needs."

"Had my grandmother's leather bound high school yearbook repaired here. The book was in really bad shape, pages falling out and the like. They really did a wonderful job. It almost looks new. Price was steeper than I hoped, but was worth every penny. As my grandmother taught me, you get what you pay for."
