- This Saint Patrick's Manual was gifted to me by the daughter of a book collector. It belonged to a Harrison Colton from Lockport, New York and it was dated 1883. This video is the culmination of a three part series of my work to conserve this unique victorian Catholic prayer book for my personal collection.

Loved watching. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece of history with us.
My hope is that you have provided a way recover the provance of this 143 year old Holy Relic. With your tender care this Relic may out last your descents. Beautiful work. Congratulations on making it into a family heirloom.
Thanks! I intend on making a prayer card for Mr. Harrison Colton.
Amazing!!…I can’t help but marvel at your skill and care you tend to restoring the book. The shop sounds are well orchestrated with life as well as the bird singing her song.
Thank you for your encouragement! Imagine what Saint Joseph's shop sounded like?
Amazing work!! 🙌🏼
Salve! Beginning @8:31, it was as if I was looking at St. Joseph's hands in his workshop. Thank-you for this video; it is so satisfying to see you rescue and preserve this books for posterity. 🙏 You should be very proud of what you have achieved. I remember you and your family in my Rosary. Looking forward to the Abp. Lefebvre story.
May God reward you!! Thank you for your kind words.
Awesome!! I’ve got an old family Bible that needs repair…interesting to watch that the old cover can be salvaged!
Oh yes! Most covers can be salvaged and touched up. Thanks for watching!
So cool!!
It's very interior me as I have old family books and old books I have bought that need attention, but are only worth something to me, so seeing this makes me think I might be able to find put more Nd maybe repair some of the issues my old books have and of cause the first question I have is what to uses eg, glue do I use that will do no further harm to the books. Paperwise I know about archival, acid free paper, but there's a lot to think about and find out before I touch anything 😊
Thank you for showing us your work, every old book is worth keeping and not either throwing away or cutting up for scrap type books 😢
Breaks my heart to see old books cut up for scrap. If you’re looking to repair your books I suggest using starch paste. It’s reversible.
I see you have covered up the information on the inside covers. Surely that is part of the history of the book. Is it now lost or can your work be undone and Mr Harrison's name and 1883 be restored? Nice to watch you work Malik
A prayer card will be made with his information.
Such a thoughtful and considerate restoration. A pleasure to watch your skills. When you mentioned Abp. Lefebvre, I subscribed! Deo gratias. [from a Catholic in the UK.]
Santo Subito! Lol. He’s in my head canon. Are you in London proper? There’s an address in the book he signed but it seems to be a home address and I’m wondering if it was some sort of underground TLM community.
Nice relaxing video continue, Malik from Jordan 🇯🇴
Salam Malik!
Regina Caeli parish has been gifted a couple of missals and devotionals that were lovely in their prime but are very old and in too bad a shape for me to sell at the bookstore. Would you like me to pass them along to you, no strings attached, to repair as you decide? Stop by the kiosk in the hallway on a Sunday after 830am Mass and I can show them to you.
Very meditative video! I watched this as an artist. I have two old Bibles that need restoring. I am able to do it myself, as I can study what I need to do. What did you use for the cosmetic repair between the outside the spine cover and the two outside front and back covers? Do you use rabbit glue, wheat paste, or archival pva glue? What kind and weight paper did you use to attach the parts together? I know about using book binding cloth. But it seems you were using paper?
Before watching this, I might have tried to repair it while open, but I guess that would make it too tight (or loose), and it would tear. Did you apply the marbled paper last?
Thanks for watching! I used an Asian long grain paper called Kozo. As far as glue goes, it really depends on the application. I was performing this repair outside of the conservation territory. If I was conserving I’d use something reversible like wheat starch paste. Kozo paper is very strong. You can use cloth as well but this is what I had on hand. Marbled pages were cut and sewn into the text block and rounded and backed along with the rest of the spine. Yes you’re right, doing the repair while the book is open tends to make the covers dry too loose and again puts stress on the spine when the book is stood up for storage.
Very Interesting! What kind of paper and glue do you use? Thanks!
Thank you! The glue and paper depends on whether or not you’re doing pure conservation or fixing for use. In this case I used PVA and wheat paste glue and a paper called Kozo which is an Asian long grain paper. It’s very strong. I also used a piece of Kozo to dye match the color of the book when I hid the seams.
