Isabelle Veilleux

These journals are the A5 but a bit larger ones with 160 pages. Isabelle followed on from the work Sam was doing in sewing in a variety of endpapers then making hard cases for them. Isabelle also completed valuable set of photos of the wide variety of binding materials for our records.

Sam Link from Minneapolis.

Sam spent time sewing the 10 sections of 4 folded leaves together. The paper is 'Eden Grove Laid' 90 gsm with a lovely crown watermark. In my research I find the paper mill where this paper was made is in Scotland. It started its life as a tannery in 1822 then converted to a paper mill about 1858. The mill has been closed down for 10 years but has been restored as a working papermaking museum.
