Friday I went to TORM & ARM for my bi-annual #historical shopping trip. I stocked up on #bookbinding goodies!
Fantastic traders & high quality items.
Some I bought from:
Lyon Leathers, Backyard Tudors, Tillerman Beads, Quatermasterie, & Stuart Peachey.

The best Vinted purchase? I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw someone selling bundles of #bookbinding bookcloth & at good prices.
I couldn't justify buying all 3, but I got the biggest quantity & one of scraps.
Can't wait to try the textured ones!

Just a 1399 unicorn watermark from a paper manufacturer from Valencia to make your day. Friends of #paperhistory know that these paper sheets of around 1400 are among the first sheets of European paper to appear on the market. European #bookhistory was a different game afterwards. #skystorians
