Book repair (cover, buy, historical)

[rajen]

I have a pretty big book, some of you probably are familiar with it, 500 Nations, that is in desperate need of repair. It in not a hard back so is it possible that it can be rebound or repaired in some way? I realize that it probably would be cheaper just to buy another copy but it was a gift so I would like to save it if possible.

Good thread. I have an old cheap h/b Bible with the cover half loose. Like you, I would like to see it fixed because it has "a story."

There is a small but well-known and well-respected company in my town that does beautiful book binding and repair.....they do lots of historical and legal records across the US and quite a lot of work in Salt Lake City for the LDS ancestry records. They also so private work for individuals.

Their address is:

John Simpson
