hdslibrary:All Edges GiltWe are the fortunate recipients of a large collection of about 150 family and illustrated bibles, most dating from the 19th century. We are currently in the unpacking and processing stage, and not quite to the cataloging and description stage. We expect to do minimal conservation beyond boxing, as evidence of use (or non-use) is important for researchers studying these books as a genre.More about this beautiful collection to come!Cool Clasps 24: Book of Secrets (Inauguration Edition)Since Joe Biden’s Big Bible got a little attention at his inauguration yesterday, we thought we’d repost this great photo of some items in our family bibles collection. Shout out to Dr. Jill Biden: These things are HEAVY! -- source link
