Some great books back for this customer, what a fantastic mixture of amazing titles!

One customer has had a very exciting book back, SNIKT!!!

Beautiful haul of book’s returned for this happy customer today, just in time for his birthday! Happy Birthday!!!

A recent email from a happy customer with a photo attached of the books he had received back, I wanted to share with you all. Really very happy for the customer, and truly hadn’t expected the grades to come back as highly as they did, especially happy with the end result of Sandman 1!

Here is a selection of some of the books I’ve worked on over the last week or so. A big thank you to all of my customers for entrusting me with your great books! A pleasure and an honour to be able to work on such gems.

The back cover of this ASM #9 had some numerous scuffs and one deep, dragging scrape which had gauged the surface quite badly. Was very happy with the end result.

May post pictures of the rest of the book at some point, the front is signed by Herb Trimpe, and really cool. Lots of surface dirt, which looks to have been caused at some point when the book has gotten wet (Note: staple rust – unfortunately there is nothing that can be done to revert the paper once rust migration has occurred!). Cleaned up quite nicely though.

Again, similar to the cover of the ASM 101, this back cover of ASM 43 has seen improvements from stain lightening and overall whitening of the cover to make it much more presentable. (Again, nothing has been used except for distilled water to achieve this)

Nice amount of lightening of the stains on the back cover of this ASM 101. For any stains you may need removed form your book’s covers, please contact me before to discuss. Note: The stains are not removed, but are lightened (using distilled water). This technique can also work on tanned pages.

Here’s a small collage of some of the books I worked on last week. An absolute treasure trove of art and story-telling.
